Supporting associates in hurricane recovery

The 2024 hurricane season was particularly challenging for Raymond James associates and advisors and our communities in the Southeast. Since October, Friends of Raymond James has fulfilled approximately 600 storm-related applications totaling about $1.4M in direct support. This relief was able to be distributed immediately to associates who primarily needed temporary housing, transportation support, and food replacement. We have also received over $100k in donations from other associates and the firm which was earmarked for those requesting immediate relief. Thank you to the individuals and entities who supported us directly during this time.
