The need for service only grew in the days after the storm.

Thirteen nonprofits serving Northwest Florida are celebrating after they each received $101,000 from a local organization.

The funds came from IMPACT 100 Pensacola Bay Area, a women’s philanthropy group that collects donations and distributes them to nonprofits each year through grants. Most of the organization’s money comes from its members, each of whom pays $1,000 annually.

As Santa Rosa County continues to recover from Hurricane Isaias, DRC Emergency Services and Tetra Tech are bringing a little Halloween fun with two Trick or Trunk events on Saturday, Oct. 31.

Midway Baptist Church, located at 5471 Gulf Breeze Parkway, suffered a sizable amount of damage from Hurricane Isaias.

The front part of the church’s old sanctuary building was destroyed when a portion of the roof was ripped off, landing in a field behind the church. Broken glass from the now-shattered front windows could be seen both inside and outside the building’s foyer the day after the storm.

Sow Wisely Lawn Care

This family owned business was out after the hurricane helping folks clear their yards. They saw me cutting and hauling a tree in my front yard, stopped and helped me finish stacking the debris. Small, family owned businesses like these are the backbone of any community, and I am thankful for the help. I will definitely call them for future lawn care needs and recommend you do the same!

Shoutout to the ladies at The Boardwalk Shop

These ladies are the kindest. We stopped for batteries and they didn’t have any to sell. But the kind lady went to the back office and gave us 2 batteries that she had. They also gave us shell finding tips and clues to find the Mermaid Mailbox! These ladies are a fine example of the Navarre community and one of the reasons we love traveling from Pittsburgh, PA to this beautiful place!

    Hurricane Isaias threw Santa Rosa County into a tailspin.

    Between efforts to restore power, remove debris and reopen roads, bringing children back to school was not the top priority. Despite initial plans to open schools again Wednesday, Oct. 14, the Santa Rosa County School Board voted instead to reopen Monday, Oct. 19.

    Midway Baptist Church, located at 5471 Gulf Breeze Parkway, suffered a sizable amount of damage from Hurricane Isaias.

    The front part of the church’s old sanctuary building was destroyed when a portion of the roof was ripped off, landing in a field behind the church. Broken glass from the now-shattered front windows could be seen both inside and outside the building’s foyer the day after the storm.
