Kentucky Tonado Relief Project (January 2022)
On December 10, 2021 a violent, long-tracked tornado moved across Western Kentucky, producing severe to catastrophic damage in numerous towns, including Mayfield, Benton, Dawson Springs, and Bremen in what may be one of the most devastating tornadoes we've ever seen -- just two weeks before Christmas. Already, 79 are confirmed dead, including 70 in Kentucky as this tornado strike cut a 250-mile path of devastation across south central U.S.
The PA Lions Disaster Relief Team has been in contact with Lion DG Gary Logan from Hopkinsville, KY who is the District Governor in district 43-K to see if there is anything we PA Lions could help with. As of this time there are items that they are in dire need of and we are putting out a plea to all 17 districts for help in getting the items listed below to be shipped to KY. Drop off points for the supplies is yet to be determined.
