Important Information Regarding Hurricanes Harvey & Irma

  • by CWA
  • •    August 31, 2017
SHARE

Hurricane Harvey & Irma brought destruction, torrential rain and devastating floods to our neighbors in the coastal region of Texas, Louisiana, Florida, Georgia and surrounding areas. The storm and associated flash flooding brought damage and loss to both homes and businesses in the affected areas.

The CWA team has those affected by this storm in our thoughts and prayers. We have created this resource page that will be continuously updated to offer the latest news/resources that those affected may need. Please visit it often to stay current on changing tax laws, insurance deadlines and other notices that come out pertaining to individuals in the affected areas.

If you were not affected, yet looking for ways to help the local dental community, please consider making a donation through the 3to1 Foundation. All donations made online or by check will fund the Foundation’s efforts in the coming weeks to help employees of dental practices that may be displaced or without income for a period of time.

3to1 Foundation- Hurricane Relief Fund

CWA has many clients in and around these areas that may have already been impacted. Even after the storm subsides, homes, businesses and lives will take time to rebuild. We wanted to help in any way possible, and we know others do too.

The 3to1 Foundation has established a relief fund to accept tax deductible donations, which will be used to provide financial assistance to those devastated by Hurricane Harvey and Irma.  For others looking to help, we are accepting donations in an effort to offer some monetary relief to those in need.

All donations made online or by check will fund the Foundation’s efforts in the coming weeks to help employees of dental practices that may be displaced or without income for a period of time. CWA has committed to matching up to $5000 of donations.
