The Storm That Changed Everything
Winds howled through the town at over 150 kilometers per hour. Floodwaters rose faster than anyone expected. By morning, Maria’s shop — once filled with color, laughter, and the hum of sewing machines — was nothing more than a soggy, broken shell of what it used to be.
“I just stood there in silence,” she recalls. “Everything I worked for… gone overnight.”
A Call That Sparked a Comeback
Thankfully, Maria wasn’t alone. Just two months earlier, she had met with a local insurance advisor from Get Covered who explained the importance of protecting her business — not just from theft or fire, but from the unexpected. She had taken out a Small Business Protection Plan, more out of caution than expectation.

Turning the Page: From Claims to Comeback
Within 48 hours, a claims specialist visited Maria’s property to assess the damage. The process was smooth and efficient, and Maria was kept in the loop every step of the way. Less than a week later, her claim was approved.
Stitching Hope Into the Future
Maria’s story doesn’t end with rebuilding — it begins there. With her business back and growing, she has since hired two young apprentices from her neighborhood, teaching them the craft she loves. She even began offering free basic sewing workshops on weekends.
“I want others to know that there’s always a way forward. And sometimes, it starts with asking for help — and having the right people there to answer.”
