Our Story

“A group of Amavida senior living residents who believe in good old American values had a desire to start a movement within our local county to honor our First Responders. It was our way of saying “Thank you for your service to our community.” We created Stand United 4 America to do so.

We wanted to show our support and appreciation for the local men and women who protect us every day; our Fire and EMS departments, Sheriff’s offices and Police stations.

Lee County was divided into Fire Districts. Pizza establishments and First Responders were located within these districts. Our Volunteers called on local pizza establishments to see if they would support our Mission by becoming a Pizza Partner donating four large pizzas biweekly or monthly. Amavida residents pick up the pizzas and deliver them to our First Responders.  

Through a partnership with Fort Myers Technical College we developed this website to provide the opportunity to highlight our Pizza Partners, First Responders and connect with other Volunteers.”
