I'm sure by now you've heard all about the tornadoes that wreaked destruction across our region on Friday. Our hearts go out to the families of the 39 individuals killed across the Bluegrass State and to everyone affected by these storms.
If you would like to help out, you can volunteer for a tornado clean up crew today in Piner, Kentucky or check in with the Wilder Fire Department to sort and fold donated clothing.
Please feel free to post other volunteer/charity organizations in the comments.
To quote the principal of a Henryville, Indiana school that was destroyed, "We're blessed because we have people."
A heartbreaking disaster. Hearts out to the victims and their families. I'm thankful that y'all weren't harmed.
ReplyDeleteSince I'm in California, I donated to Direct Relief, an organization that provides medical aid and supplies (e.g. medications) to communities in need. More info and a donation link here:
