Good evening:
I hope this email finds all of our FL Premier Family safe and well after Hurricane Ian. We are in contact with fellow soccer clubs in the SouthWest Florida area and many of them suffered extreme devastation from the storm; some losing everything. Several club and community members are living at makeshift campsights, boiling water and cooking over firepits and grills. We are working directly with one of the Club DOCs/Executives to help provide some relief, and he has provided us with a list of needed supplies.
We have three drop sites for any of our families who wish to donate supplies: RADD, Collier, and Mitchell. We are asking that items be brought Tues, Wed, Thurs this week to any of those locations. (If you cannot make it to one of these sites, please reach out to us as there will be someone who can collect donations at Tarpon and Generations during training hours). We are also accepting cash donations to purchase propane tanks, generators and needed tools. If you are interested in making a cash donation- please venmo Scott Hinz -Hinz-10. Or you can contact Brooke Hinz at 813-406-3136; [email protected].
All donation items are appreciated but please see below for a much needed list:
