Local 10's Care Force ready to bring relief to South Florida Irma victims

The Local 10 Care Force has been activated. It’s the station's coordinated response for disaster relief and recovery. 

In the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, Local 10 has assembled a team of businesses and organizations to meet the needs of the most vulnerable South Floridians. Since the needs are many and ongoing, the goal is to have multiple partners to sustain multiple levels of support.

If you or your company would like to join forces with the Local 10 Care Force to donate services and/or supplies, email community@local10.com.

Stay tuned to Local 10 News and local10.com for regular reports. 

Thank you for caring and making a difference!
