Bruce & Nadine Jennings Go Fund Me

The storm and flash flood completely wiped out the culvert, bridge, and a good section of their driveway and there is now a massive ravine at the end of their driveway, cutting them off from the rest of town and their water supply. There will be a long road to recovery for them, and many expenses associated with the extensive repairs that are needed. Bruce and Nadine are so generous with their time and always willing to help their community, I am hoping we can step in and support them through this tough time.
Val Galvagni Go Fund Me

Val’s Long Lake home has been severely, maybe irrevocably damaged by flooding and mud. It will be days and weeks until the damage can be properly assessed, but suffice it to say her home is no longer livable.
