June, July and August we are asking for your help in sending a North fort Myers student back to school in style.

Please join us and support our second annual NFMCA Shoe Fundraiser. We will be handing out gift certificates to students who reside in North Fort Myers.

Our initiative is meant to help low-income households in North Fort Myers

I don't know about you but it is a good feeling to start school in a pair of new shoes My mother was a single parent just like so many in our area and there were not any opportunities like this when I grew up. I am proud that my idea of this fundraiser last year helped 22 children start school in a pair of new Skechers.

Keep an eye out for our fundraiser on our website www nfmcivic com Where you will be able to donate Remember, the NFMCA will match up to the first $500 donated

Last year with the community's help we matched the first $500 and ended up with $1,150 to purchase $50 gift cards to Skechers.

Let's hope we can exceed that amount this year. Nomination information and qualifications will be posted on our website www nfmcivic com any questions email us at nfmcivic@gmail com

North Fort Myers Civic Association has 3 open positions for the Board of Directors Qualifications can be found on our website We invite you to submit a resume if you have the time and desire to volunteer for the Betterment of North Fort Myers.

WINK NEWS Chief meteorologist Matt Devitt

Will host our NFMCA second annual Hurricane Seminar.

Matt was our host at our first seminar and we look forward to seeing and learning from him again this year

We hope the residents of North Fort Myers will attend As we learned from last year, knowing as much as we can about the before, the during, and the after a major storm is important We could never know too much. We cannot afford to be unprepared and should remain teachable. To learn as many safeguards as you can because after all this is our life here, not only our way of life but our physical life

There will be North Fort Myers Fire and Rescue, Lee County Insurance and Ellsworth Heating and Cooling experts among others, who are eager to make sure we go into the 2023 hurricane season with confidence
