Everyone jokes around about how Florida is tough and rough when it comes to bad weather—especially Floridians themselves. But in all actuality, Hurricane Ian has devastated millions of people in its wake. Though Floridians might be used to these kinds of disasters, it's still a traumatic blow to its residents. Many people hunkered down and tried their best to stay safe and sound during the hurricane. Now many are left without homes or power. Donations to the American Red Cross can be made online, by phone at 1-800-HELP-NOW (1-800-435-7669) or even with the text "REDCROSS" to 90999. If you are near the affected areas, here is a list of how to volunteer. And this article provides some great local Florida charities to support. Many Floridians have posted and continue to post harrowing photos of Hurricane Ian's devastating aftermath online and each one sends a cold shiver down your spine.
