Pinellas County just reopened a major opportunity for homeowners, today APRIL 1st, 2026!

Eligible residents can now receive up to $75,000 in home repair assistance to cover critical needs like roofs, windows, HVAC, and more- through a fully forgivable loan.

This is a huge step in helping families stay safe in their homes and avoid displacement as costs continue to rise.

At Hurricane Help Florida, this is exactly why we exist, to help bridge the gap between programs like this and the families who need them most.

If you or someone you know may qualify, now is the time to apply.

We are excited to announce that Hope Rising (our first grant funded project) officially launches today, January 8th, and we are calling on volunteers across Tampa and St. Pete to help families still recovering from Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

No experience is needed. A willing heart and a few hours of your time can make a real difference for a family working to make their home safe and livable again.

Volunteer opportunities include painting, yard cleanup, furniture assembly, moving household items, light cleanup, and other hands-on support tasks. Certified and licensed volunteers in skilled trades are also encouraged to apply.

If you know a homeowner who is struggling to rebuild, please help us spread the word and encourage them to apply for assistance.

Join us and be part of something bigger. Help restore homes, stability, and hope across Greater Tampa Bay.

We’re officially partnering with Tampa Bay , one of the most respected disaster-recovery resource organizations in the region.

ToolBank is known for one thing: equipping communities with every tool imaginable so volunteers can rebuild faster, safer, and more efficiently.

This partnership means that every volunteer who joins our Hope Rising rebuilding efforts will have access to virtually every tool under the sun. If a family needs it repaired, cleaned, rebuilt, or restored, we’ll have the right tools in hand.

ToolBank has been a cornerstone for community recovery across Florida, and now their strength becomes ours. Together, we’re empowering neighbors to step up, rebuild homes, and accelerate recovery for families impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

Volunteers of all skill levels are welcome.

If you’re a certified tradesperson, we especially need you. If you’re brand new to rebuilding work, you’ll be fully equipped and supported from the moment you arrive.

Hope starts with hands willing to help and the tools to make it happen.
