Please support our amazing and deserving nonprofit organizations through the 2026 Giving Challenge. I’ll be at the Punta Gorda History Center on 4/15 from noon to 6 p.m. and look forward to seeing you there!

Punta Gorda is one of Florida’s most historic cities with a rich and colorful past. It helped shape our slice of paradise and make it the special place we call home. As I learned from Jaime Correa, preserving our history preserves our identity.

For as little as $25 you can become a philanthropist and your gift will be matched by The Patterson Foundation (up to $100). Use the link below on 4/15-16, from noon to noon to support your favorite nonprofits.

Milton’s storm surge was higher than Helene at my home but didn’t reach the garage. 🙏 Feeling blessed to have a dry home inside. Our new pool cage survived. Thank you Anderson Enclosures LLC. The Holiday Inn Express & Suites Punta Gorda off Jones Loop Road was an awesome place to evacuate to and nearby. 👍 Praying for all who are impacted by Milton’s wrath and their recovery. 🙏
