Over 300 people in Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia and Virginia lost their lives in record tornado outbreaks.
You can help the recovery efforts throughout the damaged regions. Convoy of Hope has rushed teams and aid to the South where a massive storm — that spawned dozens of deadly tornadoes — decimated communities and claimed nearly 200 lives in Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia and Virginia. Samaritan's Purse deployed two of our Disaster Relief Units, tractor-trailers fully stocked with emergency tools and supplies, to serve as command posts for staff and volunteers in the hardest hit areas. Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services (EDS) personnel are currently responding to tornadic activity throughout the southeastern United States. Initial reports indicate extensive damage in Tuscaloosa, Alabama with storms tracking through N. Alabama, N.W. Georgia, and S.E. Tennessee. Post your prayers for the victims and suvivors on our PrayerWorks page. |
