Please Help The Midwest Flood Victims

| | Comments (0)
The Midwestern United States has been hard hit lately by flooding, and the American Red Cross is working hard to help families who have been affected.  Red Cross volunteers have filled sandbags to hold back the floods, manned shelters for people displaced from their homes, delivered food to areas without power, and been there for those who need it.

You can be there, too, by contributing to the American Red Cross through this button.  Every contribution made through this button will go to relief efforts for the recent storms in Iowa and Indiana.  If you want to give to these floods, please use the button below and not others on the site, as others will donate to the local chapter.
