Flora-Bama Hosts Hurricane Relief Drive & Songwriter Fundraiser Show

The Gulf Coast is no stranger to hurricanes. When one hits, especially storms as devastating as Helene and Milton, it takes communities coming together to support and rebuild. Flora-Bama hosted a hurricane relief drive to gather items for people in need such as non-perishable food items, bug spray, cleaning supplies, construction supplies, first aid items, pet food, water, tarps and so much more. Partnering with The United Cajun Navy allowed us to get these items to communities in North Carolina and Florida who need it most. Along with hosting this drive, Flora-Bama in conjunction with the Mark McBride Arts and Music Fund, hosted a songwriter event with Mike Nash and Will Kimbrough to raise additional funds. These musicians performed their songs to a full audience who purchased tickets as a donation to this fund. 100% of the ticket money was donated to the hurricane relief fund and a live auction was held to engage the crowd and encourage additional donations culminating with a total of $8054 on top of the items donated. A huge thank you to everyone who contributed, Mark McBride Arts and Music Fund for supporting, and The United Cajun Navy for partnering with us to deliver the items. Prayers are constantly flowing from the entire Flora-Bama team to the hurricane victims.
