Recent severe storms in West Central Indiana have resulted in destruction and widespread power outages. The utility crews have worked to clear lines and restore power as quickly as possible, but many in area communities were left in the dark and lost food and other perishable items.
To some, this creates a significant financial burden, especially at a time when children are out of school and household expenses are increased anyway.
After many requests for assistance from clients and inquiries from donors about ways to help families, Family Support Services of West Central Indiana created a temporary After Storm Family Support Fund to help ease the financial burden and provide financial support in the form of gift cards to purchase groceries.
Priority will be given to the clients of Family Support Services and referrals from partner agencies in Putnam, Owen, Clay, Parke, Montgomery, and Boone Counties. Assistance will be distributed as funds become available.
To donate, checks can be sent to FSSWCI at 605 Crown Street, Greencastle, IN 46135 or online by clicking the button below.
