We’re assembling five-gallon buckets full of essential cleaning and safety supplies to distribute directly to Central Floridians who are recovering from the devastation caused by Hurricane Ian.

Habitat Orlando & Osceola has committed to responding to both the immediate and long-term needs of our community, which experienced a direct hit by the storm. Cleaning and safety supplies are immediate needs we’ve identified to help those affected deal with the aftermath of flooding and roof damage.
