Severe weather in the U.S. raised havoc over the past two weeks. Eleven states in the Midwest, mid-Atlantic, and the South reported damage from tornadoes, strong winds, large hail, and flooding. At least 32 people died, and dozens were injured.

Our Rapid Response teams are actively investigating the needs and performing cleanup projects in various states. The teams deployed are from Tennessee, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, Alabama, Oklahoma, Missouri, Indiana, Iowa, Georgia, Arkansas, and Illinois. Other organizations are also active, so at this point, it appears like most of the cleanup projects will only last for one or two weeks.
