Ian Post-storm Resource Summary
LAST UPDATED: 27 March 2023

Since Hurricane Ian made landfall on September 28th 2022, The Pfeifer Team remains "ALL IN" helping our area recover regardless of the challenges we face. We love this community and will continue to dig deep, stay positive, give hugs, rake, pressure wash, bag trash, keep our work shoes on and our sleeves rolled up to help Sanibel, Captiva & SWFL build back better & stronger. Regardless of where you fall on your recovery path, we’re here for you. Please reach out to us, we want to help you any way we can.

To help friends and neighbors navigate the challenges we are all facing, we created Pfeifer's Comprehensive Post-Ian Resource Updates on September 29th and over the weeks and months, the subscribers grew and so did the recovery topics. We went from 319 Subscribers to 1,685 Subscribers with over 200 Resources & Recovery Topics. We sent our last update at 2:30pm September 28th, 2023 as this was the time we lost cell service connections to friends and loved ones as we watched the unthinkable unfold...


Should you need details for any topic below, please let us know. We're here to help: 239-472-0004
