But, obviously, for many living in the most impacted areas in Florida, Hurricane Ian was much more than a historic natural disaster to marvel at. With a rising death toll, hundreds of thousands still without power, and entire towns decimatedbeyond recognition, the destruction Hurricane Ian has left in its path is becoming clearer every day.

Here's how.Just as the internet comes together to see meteorologists stand in the pouring hurricane rains, it can also come together and raise money for those in need. Here are a few organizations doing the work on the ground to help those affected by Hurricane Ian that you can donate your time or money to.

If you go to Twitter and search the hashtag "#ChefsForFlorida" right now, you can see exactly where and how your donation is being put to use.
The State of Florida has an official fund where individuals can help with disaster recovery called the Florida Disaster Fund. As of Friday, more than $12 million has already been donatedthrough the fund.
100 percent of your donation made through the Florida Disaster Fund goes to recovery and aid efforts as it has waived all administration and credit card fees as a result of Hurricane Ian.
