SFA Disaster Relief
Special Forces Association (SFA) and its buildings were seriously hit by Hurricane Matthew this past October. It caused severe damage to the National Headquarters Building, the Special Forces Association “Team House” and the Maintenance Building all receiving varying depths of flooding.
The property damage sustained is not covered in their insurance policy since the loss was caused by flood. The SFA will therefore have to pay out of pocket to rebuild from the loss.
The National Headquarters Building sustained the heaviest damages, and the expense to repair, has been conservatively estimated by their Insurance Adjuster at $250,000.00.
