While officials say it may take weeks to fully assess the hurricane’s devastation, it is now considered the most powerful storm to ever strike Florida’s Big Bend region. When it made landfall late Thursday as a monster Category 4 storm, many residents were still reeling from Hurricane Debbie, which struck the area in early August.

“Whenever a storm of this magnitude hits,” says CityServe co-founder and CEO Dave Donaldson, “we know we’re on the clock right away. People are in desperate need of help right away, so it’s critical to get relief out to them immediately.”

CityServe International leaders are available to comment on the emergency relief operations now getting underway, as well as how the hurricane’s aftermath is affecting the local communities they serve.
