Parts of our Local have been devastated by deadly flooding, leaving thousands homeless in West Virginia.
According to multiple media reports, West Virginia received one-quarter of its annual rainfall in a single day and multiple rivers surged to dangerous levels, including the Elk River, which broke a record at one stage that had stood since 1888.
Now ranked as the third deadliest flood in the state’s history, 23 people have been killed and 1,200 homes have damaged or destroyed.
Those affected by this terrible disaster need our help.
Throughout the state, people are helping each other as families work together to comfort and provide shelter to neighbors and friends who have lost everything, while total strangers are helping one another because there is no one and nowhere else to turn.
Right now, numerous groups and organizations have come in to help, but they cannot offer assistance without your support. To help those in need, please contact:
