Sandro Rodriguez, from Lehigh Acres, has family in Puerto Rico while Hurricane Fiona is wreaking havoc. “Right now, what they need is food and, I mean, a lot of people stop working,” Rodriguez said. “You know, they’re worried about their homes, getting their homes back to normal again.” “What happened the last time, they got storage units stuffed full of water and the stuff they needed,” Rodriguez said. “They lost it because people were hiding it. I hope that doesn’t happen again.” Jill Palmer is the executive director for the Florida Gulf Coast to Heartland chapter of the American Red Cross. She told WINK News it’s already sent four local volunteers to Puerto Rico and they will make sure donations get to people who need them. The Red Cross helping with disaster relief in Puerto Rico.
