Standing Strong Together: ESA’s Call to Aid Hurricane Victims
In the wake of Hurricane Helene and Milton, the Electronic Security Association (ESA) extends its thoughts and support to all those affected by these storm’s devastation. We understand the immense challenges faced by impacted communities, and we want to share essential resources and donation opportunities to facilitate recovery efforts.
ESA encourages our members and the entire industry to unite during this critical time. Whether through donations, sharing vital information, or simply spreading awareness, every action matters. Your contributions can significantly help those in need and foster a sense of solidarity among us.
Together, we can support our colleagues and neighbors as they rebuild and recover.
If you’d like to assist those affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton, whether through donations, supplies, or even by sending technicians and other staff to help with security system installs, we’d love to connect you with fellow ESA members in the impacted areas. Please reach out to our membership team ([email protected]) to see how you can lend a hand and support recovery efforts. Every bit helps as we work together to rebuild and protect these communities.
