Mississippi/Alabama Tornado Relief Fund

About

Several powerful tornados touched down across Mississippi and Alabama in the late evening hours of March 24, 2023, killing at least 26 people, leaving dozens more injured, and displacing many residents from their homes. Several communities across Mississippi and Alabama have been left without access to water, food, electricity and shelter, and the destruction to these communities is devastating. The following organizations are providing essential disaster relief efforts such as assessing needs across communities, setting up temporary shelters, preparing and delivering meals, distributing emergency supplies kits and removing debris to clear roadways for first responders to aid search and rescue efforts. Your donation to this Fund will assist each organization with providing these critical services. Please note the organizations included in this Fund are subject to change as we learn more about needs on the ground.
