National service agency recognizes Florida resident for 650 hours of service rebuilding homes affected by disaster
DeRitis served all 650 hours in the aftermath of Hurricane Ian, during which his own home was destroyed. DeRitis is a team lead for Inspiritus and provides training to other volunteers to effectively muck and gut out damaged buildings, provide mold sanitation services and complete small home repairs. In addition to his on-the-ground support, he has assisted with administrative tasks like tool and inventory management.
“Anyone who works with Philip walks away with a new skill and a profound sense of hope,” said AmeriCorps CEO Michael D. Smith. “Not only has he become the go-to volunteer to solve problems, Philip also embodies the spirit of service communities like Fort Meyers’ needs to move forward after disasters. On behalf of AmeriCorps, thank you for volunteering your time and showing that service is a uniting force.”
AmeriCorps offers opportunities for individuals of all backgrounds to be a part of the national service community, grow personally and professionally, and receive benefits for their service.
