Coral Springs, Florida – The Coral Springs Coconut Creek Regional Chamber of Commerce is gathering goods and items for the hurricane-affected cities on Florida’s west coast.

“The Chamber is assisting him in getting the word out so that we can help our neighbors on the West Coast,” she added.
The Parkland Chamber of Commerce is also assisting, pushing locals to gather essential supplies for individuals impacted by one of the greatest storms the state has ever seen.
“In the state of Florida, and certainly in our local business community, coming together to support one another is the collective hug that is needed in times like this,” said the Parkland Chamber’s Board of Directors in a statement.
