GEORGIA: Tornado Hits EXACT Spot as it did Two Years Ago

Anna Lynn | No Federal Funding Available for Assistance | About Us > From the section: Binky Recipients
March, 2003 |

The following memo came out to us today:

Donations for Tornado victimes will be collected Friday (today) and again after Spring Break by the Interact Club.

Help is urgently needed.  Twenty-two families have lost everything, have no insurance, and are unable to receive federal disaster assistance.  Help must come from donations and the Red Cross has received almost nothing.

Items collected tomorrow will be delivered tomorrow to Camilla for immediate assistance.  Thank you for helping those who are so despeate. (End memo)

If you could get a few binkies, especially teen size, I would appreciate it and make sure that they are delivered.

There are 34 children (Under 16) included in this group.  This is a farming community and most lost their farms.  Also, there were six deaths so far.

Please send to:

Thanking you in advance for your help,
Anna

***********************************************

Anna,

We have the binkies and will ask our heroes, JC Carter to send them to you ASAP.  If anyone else has clothing, etc. they want to include, please send it along to Anna Lynn.

Anna, let us know when you are filled up by "commenting" on this article after you sign in to the website.  We'll all want to know when you have enough or if you have more specific needs.

Sincerely,

Susan Finch, Founder/President

UPDATE:

Binkies were sent and received last week (4/7).  Thank you JC Carter, Virginia and Jack Arnold, Laura McCoy, Susan Staebell for answering this call.  It's amazing how we all can pull it together so quickly.  Technology, quilting, knitting and crocheting.  Who would have thought they all worked so well together!

Susan Finch
