Thousands of pounds of relief supplies collected for Pine Island at the Naples Airport have been loaded onto a truck to transport the supplies to those in desperate need.
“We are overwhelmed by the generosity of our community, which itself is still recovering from the devastating impacts of Hurricane Ian.” said Naples Airport Authority Executive Director Chris Rozansky. “In one day, the community came together and collected over 18 pallets of critically needed food, water, cleaning supplies and more for the people of Pine Island.”
Over 18 pallets of food, water, diapers, cleaning supplies, bedding and personal hygiene items were collected on Tuesday. Due to the tremendous response, the decision was made to take the supplies by boat rather than aircraft. Truck and boat transportation are being undertaken by Operation Airdrop and the Cajun Navy.
