To the Members of ARCOS

[Artina Dawkins]

Dear ARCOS Members –

I want to take a moment to send my thoughts and prayers to the ARCOS members who may have been impacted by Hurricane Ian. I hope that you have a strong week and that this message finds you safe and well!

Regards,

Artina

[Julie Brown]

Thank you Artina, we appreciate your thoughts and prayers.  My institution and many co-workers experienced flooding but we are all safe 🙂

You’re welcome, Julie! It is good to know that you and your co-workers are safe. I saw from the local news that citizens in Fort Myers, FL were significantly impacted from the storm – including some not having access to water or ice. In case it is helpful, here are links to a couple of organizations providing relief and accepting donations (not necessarily endorsing these groups, but providing information):

Thanks Artina and all- MUSC in Charleston did pretty well during Hurricane Ian- some high winds and flooding -but flooding downtown happens pretty much every month during high tide.

Our prayers and best wishes go out to our friends on Florida’s west coast and in central Florida!  Joan

You’re welcome, Joan. Glad to know that MUSC fared well!
