Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) and United HomeCare in Miami-Dade are partnering to distribute 2,460 hurricane kits to 820 seniors in Miami-Dade County on June 23, 2023. With the start of what is anticipated to be another active storm season, this effort will help provide vital supplies to seniors in the communities FPL serves. 

Volunteers from FPL and United HomeCare in Miami-Dade will help distribute them. The hurricane kits include three days of shelf-stable, nutritious food, water and snacks for seniors who may not be able to leave their homes or receive home-delivered meals after a storm.
