Clearing the Way: SECO Energy Foundation Supports LASER’s Recovery Efforts with $5,000 Grant

Lake County, FL – The SECO Energy Foundation is proud to award a $5,000 grant to Lake Support and Emergency Recovery, Inc (LASER) to bolster ongoing recovery efforts following last year’s hurricanes. LASER plays a critical role in Lake County’s disaster response, providing essential debris removal, home stabilization, and long-term recovery assistance for residents affected by major storms.

Founded in 2005 and activated following the devastating Groundhog Day tornadoes in 2007, LASER has logged more than 30,000 volunteer hours and assisted hundreds of local families. Today, they are working to resolve 259 active recovery cases with a focus on homeowners who are uninsured, underinsured, elderly, disabled, or veterans. Once the initial recovery phase ends, LASER provides case management services and helps secure grants to restore homes to pre-disaster conditions. The SECO Energy Foundation’s funding is helping address lingering debris removal needs.

“Last year’s back-to-back hurricanes brought unique challenges,” said a Brandi Martin, LASER’s Executive Director. “With hurricane season fast approaching and clean-up still ongoing from last October, this grant allows us to work with additional contractors to remove dangerous debris.”

“Even long after the storms have passed, the road to recovery continues for many local families,” said Sara Meyer-Oswalt, SECO Energy Foundation President. “We’re proud to support LASER’s continued efforts to help residents navigate the long-term challenges and prepare for the up-coming hurricane season.”
