Mid-South is hard hit by tornadoes
If you can afford a donation, these folks need some help…..
Monkeyfister
The Toll Is At 54 And Rising…
Tragic. I pray that peace, kindness and hope can find each and every one of those touched families.
I’ve been looking around for some local centralized relief group/agency… Someplace.
Right now, I recommend the:
American Red Cross
Mid-South Chapter
1400 Central Avenue
Memphis, TN 38104
901-726-1690And:
United Way of the Mid-South phone in a donation at (901) 433-4300.They take DIRECT donations, so you can skip all the National-level waste and delay, AND they serve nearly every community in the effected radius.
I don’t ask for much from my readers, but I sure would appreciate some link love on this post– or better yet– if you’d work-up something of your own linking to the Mid-South Red Cross Chapter to help this area get back on it’s feet, re-building, and healing. It’d mean an awful lot to many. A bit of a small-blog swarm would be a mighty thing.
Thanks in advance.

I’ve reposted this over at my place and have already sent something to the Red Cross in Memphis. We dodged the bullet in Georgia.

Thanks, fallenmonk. Glad you and yours are ok - but be very careful this spring - lokks like it will be a bad one for tornadoes.
