Supporting Our Own in Special Times of Need

  • February 2026

COME LEARN MORE ON FEBRUARY 2ND AND 23RD

We are proud to announce the creation of the Verandah Employee Emergency Relief Fund” said Doug Van Nostran, President of the Fund. It is a non-profit, charitable organization recognized by the state of Florida and the Internal Revenue Service. It is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of homeowners that live in Verandah and a representative of Kolter Hospitality.

We believe that contributing to the well-being of Verandah’s employees in times of personal emergencies, is a meaningful way to show appreciation for their hard work and dedication. Investing in their well-being not only enhances their lives but also strengthens the experience of homeowners living in Verandah.

Verandah employees experiencing emergencies may request support for:

1. Post-Disaster Relief

Assistance with emergency food, medical needs, clothing, essential supplies, and temporary shelter after natural disasters, pandemics, or personal crises.

2. Urgent Medical Assistance

Help with sudden, unplanned medical expenses resulting from injury or illness.

3. Employee Support

Provide temporary assistance to employees experiencing unexpected personal or family hardships that affect their ability to work. The goal is to help them regain stability and return to full productivity.

Everyone is encouraged to come the River House on Monday, February 2nd and again on February 23rd at 5:00 PM to learn more about this exciting way to support our employees.

Built on the strength of our community, this charitable Fund helps Verandah employees

navigate emergencies, from medical crises to natural disasters, with confidence and support
