An online giving program established last year to help hurricane victims in Texas, Florida, and Puerto Rico is now focusing its efforts on providing aid to people affected by Hurricane Florence, which recently inflicted billions in damage in the Carolinas.

Now's your chance to help.

"Rehab Therapists Give Back," an online giving program designed to provide physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, and other rehabilitation professionals with an opportunity to come together as a unified community to help those in need, is now accepting donations for Florence relief. Accessible through a GlobalGiving website, the initiative allows donors to contribute any amount. Electronic medical records system vendor WebPT and APTA were founding funders of the program.
