The Road to Recovery

On April 27, the Southeast was struck by the worst storm system in 40 years. Hundreds of tornadoes left many areas in splinters, taking more than 300 lives.

Although these states have been beaten, they are not defeated. We know the people of these communities are resilient and these devastated areas will recover.

It is our goal to aid our friends and neighbors on “The Road To Recovery."
