ALAQUA ANIMAL REFUGE

Hurricane Michael Relief Efforts
Hurricane Michael, the strongest storm to ever hit the Florida Panhandle, left a trail of devastation for the residents and the animals who were left behind.

Alaqua is located approximately 70 miles west from where the storm made landfall, and we are blessed to say that the Refuge is safe with minimal damage. Our animals are also safe and doing well, and we appreciate all the support of many individuals that stepped up to help us.

Alaqua has now turned our efforts to helping those that were in the path of Hurricane Michael. We are in contact with individuals and shelters in the affected areas and are helping in the following ways:

Collection Point:
We are a collection point for supplies to be dispersed to these hard-hit areas. Items most requested now are bottled water, dog and cat food, litter, linens, cleaning products (bleach, soap, topical cleaners). Dog and cat crates are also needed to get animals out and to transport them safely.

Relief Fund:
A donation site has been established for monetary funds that will be used to rescue and house rescued animals, as well as provide emergency funding for the affected areas. You can donate below to help us.

On The Ground Assistance:
Alaqua is ready to take in animals from the storm and has secured placement for displaced horses and farm animals. Our medical team, as well as a team of local veterinarians, are also on stand-by to help injured animals and provide medical treatments as necessary.

If you know of any abandoned or injured animals, please report it to us right away by calling 850-880-6694 or emailing LHood@alaqua.org so that we can coordinate with the proper authorities. At the time of this email, we are still without electricity and phone service, but we are able to get messages and emails to this address.

Reports need to be in the following format:

1. Your name
2. Best number to contact you
3. Email
4. Exact location of animals and quantity
5. Additional details such as if they are injured, constrained, abandoned, or running loose (describe situation as best you can)

Please do not attempt to go into the affected areas to search for animals! Again, we are here to help and can coordinate with the proper agencies and provide assistance.

Donate Here!

Hurricane Michael Update



We are working with the UMC to serve as a distribution center to help those impacted by Hurricane Michael. This means that we will serve as a staging area for UMCOR cleaning and hygiene kits along with other heavy equipment. Other churches will bring supplies to us and we will pass them in to the certified teams heading in to work. We currently have one semi in route full of supplies. The convenience of our church location will allow these materials to move into damaged areas as soon as possible.

We will be storing these items in our Kids/Students building, so all kids Kindergarten and up will be joining their families in worship this Sunday. Kids ages 4 and under will meet in their usual classrooms.

Gifts designated on Sunday morning will go directly towards hurricane relief efforts. If you are not able to attend on Sunday, but would still like to give you May do so online. Select general fund and type UMCOR in the comment box.

Only certified teams are being allowed into the damaged areas so we do not have a work team option at this time. However, immediate needs that can be met are bottled water or gift cards to big box stores that will allow people to purchase essentials as they figure out their next steps. You can also purchase items for UMCOR relief kits. You can see the list of those items by clicking the link below. You can drop off donations listed above at the church.

We have been overwhelmed by your generosity and willingness to help. Please keep our friends and neighbors to the east in your prayers.

Hurricane Michael Relief
Children are our passion and focus at Food for Thought and caring for our neighbors is a core value we share. The devastation in the aftermath of Hurricane Michael, particularly to our neighboring communities in Panama City and along the Forgotten Coast, has caused an urgent need for survival supplies.

The communities of Walton and Okaloosa Counties are rallying to help, and Food for Thought is specifically collecting supplies to aid in the care of children, including diapers, formula, bottles, and more. A full list is available below. We will work directly with emergency responders to ensure we get these supplies into the hands of those in need.

*Please no toys or stuffed animals. We are only collecting the essentials!

Drop-off Location:
132 Market St Santa Rosa Beach
Monday - Friday 8:30AM-4:30PM
Food for Thought Services:

We will reopen on Monday, October 15th and services and our backpack program will resume then. We are expecting an increased demand for our services as displaced families enroll students in Walton & Okaloosa County Schools.

850-714-1960 - text or call

ICE + SUPPLIES
Coolers needed

Buddy's Seafood 30A, Idyll Hounds Brewing Company, and Shades Bar and Grill are teaming up and supplying ice and supplies to as many people affected by Hurricane Michael as possible!

The further east, the worse the conditions are and any help with supply is possible.

Right now ice is GOLD and we have plenty of it but the problem is keeping enough ice chilled before arrival. If anyone has large coolers to spare to hold ice, this is by far one of the best ways to help! Hoping for at least 20 100qt coolers. These are only being borrowed so please leave your name and number on them with marker or tape in order for us to return it!

In addition to coolers, if you want to contribute in ANY way, the following supplies have been desperately needed:
Bottled water
Diapers
Baby dry formula
Baby wipes
Disinfectant wipes
Dehydrated milk
Dog/cat food
Feminine products
Empty 5 gal buckets for carrying goods
TARPS
GAS
Non perishable Foods
ANYTHING IS EVERYTHING

A drop off for the supplies are available at these 2 locations.

Buddy’s Seafood 30-A
5231 E Co HWY 30-A, SRB, FL

Idyll Hounds Brewery
845 Serenoa Rd, SRB, FL

Let us emphasize these supplies are NOT going to any organization but are going straight to the victims that have ZERO means to reach help. If donated we will make sure to tag who/what business you represent! We appreciate your time, love, and support to make this community whole again.



Fresh pallet of water on its way to PC etc! Please stay tuned for more info. We are canning more!

Last Wednesday, a near Category 5 Hurricane slammed into our Panhandle community. Our neighbors to the east in Panama City and Mexico Beach have suffered incredible loss and total devastation in some areas. As a local nonprofit, it is our job to rally behind them and provide relief, support, and supplies to our friends.

We have already purchased enough toothbrushes, toothpaste, and mouthwash for 1,000 people. We are going to keep our offices closed this week and instead work to help rebuild the community and volunteer with local relief efforts to provide support.

If you would like to help but can't join us in volunteering, please consider making a donation (link below). Every donation received will be used to purchase much needed supplies for the local relief centers.

You can make a donation through the link below. Every donation is tax deductible. We will be updating on this page with photos as we travel to the affected areas. We also will be updating here with the specific supplies that are needed. (see Children's Volunteer Health Network on Facebook)

If you are local, you will be able to drop items off to our office in Santa Rosa Beach. Continue to pray for those affected by this disaster.
