Kentucky Tornado Victims to Receive RVs from Florida Nonprofit

Planet RV founder and CEO Gigi Stetler and her nonprofit organization, RVACA, announced efforts to provide RVs and relief supplies to Kentucky area tornado victims in need of shelter.

Tornadoes have devastated Kentucky and surrounding areas, leaving 74 people dead, more than 100 unaccounted for and 30,000 in homes without power.

“When a natural disaster occurs at this magnitude, RVs act as a lifeline for those affected,” said Stetler. “RVs provide a safe space for people who have nowhere else to turn, and it’s our responsibility to work together to help out the people of Kentucky in their time of great need.”

Stetler said disaster response has become second nature. She has donated RVs and relief supplies to victims of Hurricanes Michael, Dorian, Andrew and many others. After Hurricane Katrina, Stetler donated 40 campers stocked with supplies to local police officers whose homes were destroyed in Pass Christian, Miss. RVACA also played a key role in providing emergency housing to frontline workers during the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure they had a safe place to stay.

Members of the greater RV community who want to join Stetler’s relief efforts are encouraged to donate to RVACA’s RVs for Needs initiative at https://panel.rvaca.org/Donate.
