Considering the circumstances from Helene, we encourage you to support our FSFA International Cares Program. Established by our Past President, Deborah De La Flor, the FSFA International Cares initiative was designed to assist members in mitigating the devastating effects that follow a natural disaster.

Your generous contributions will provide critical support to affected members and their communities in urgent need. The funds raised through your donations can be utilized to procure essential supplies for cleanup efforts. We understand that many of our members are facing significant challenges due to severe flooding, wind damage, and the loss of their businesses.

Please remember that no contribution is too small.

While we recognize that not everyone may be able to offer financial assistance, I urge you to extend words of encouragement and support to those impacted. Sometimes, a listening ear and a compassionate voice can make an indelible difference.

Your FSFA International

President Michael Smith and the Board of Directors.
