Organizations that help people experiencing homelessness see increase in need after Hurricane Milton
SUMMARY: Organizations supporting people experiencing homelessness are working to recover from severe damage caused by hurricanes Helen and Milt. Panella’s Hope, which provides housing, faced unprecedented destruction, including damaged tents and moved platforms, with recovery costs estimated at $100,000 and an additional $700,000 needed for flood prevention. Clients are temporarily housed at St. Catherine of Sienna Catholic Church, which impacts their mental health. Other organizations, like St. Vincent de Paul Cares and the Homeless Empowerment Program, are also seeing increased demand for services and depleting resources. All three organizations are seeking monetary and food donations to support those in need.
Organizers with Pinellas Hope said it will take roughly $100,000 to fix the damage on the property, but roughly $700,000 to prevent further flooding from storms.
