Tornado Relief Efforts
Families across the state are still working to pick up the pieces and rebuild, after powerful storms and tornadoes devastated parts of Illinois, destroying hundreds of homes, and killing at least six people.
If you want to help, by making a donation, or volunteering your time, we're providing links to information about relief efforts coordinated by the following organizations:
The Washington Chamber of Commerce also has asked for volunteers to help collect and organize donations for tornado victims. The Chamber is asking people to the work in three-hour shifts, starting between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. Tuesday. It needs at least 16 people per shift. If you would like to help, please call 309-229-6524. You can leave a voicemail with your contact information, and what shifts you could help.
