Help Sullivan Recover Fund Created in Wake of Devastation
Help Sullivan Recover!
With extensive damage in Sullivan County from the recent devastating storms, the Wabash Valley Community Foundation has launched an ongoing emergency and disaster relief fund to help support recovery and relief efforts in Sullivan County.
The donation fund provides an avenue for those wishing to contribute and is set to prioritize immediate and long-term recovery and relief efforts for those impacted by the storms in Sullivan County.
The fund’s launch comes as a line of devastating storms tracked across the Midwest the evening of March 31, producing tornados and excessive winds. Initial reports by emergency responders suggest over 200 structures in the County have received significant damage, with 150 of those being within Sullivan city limits.
“We are overwhelmed with the outpouring of support. We appreciate every contribution and so many individuals have reached out offering support in many ways,” said Clint Lamb, Mayor of the City of Sullivan. “We are grateful to the Wabash Valley Community Foundation for providing this as an avenue of support. We have a road to recovery, and any donations will be used to support those in need as we build back stronger.”
First Deadline to Apply is June 15
The Community Foundation is now offering Seed Grants to further fulfill the objectives of the Terre Haute Community Plan, “See You in Terre Haute”. Seed grants assist projects in their preliminary stages, helping cover the groundwork costs necessary for larger projects. These grants will help expand programs that are developed to encourage population growth and/or increase per capita personal income. The Wabash Valley Community Foundation is able to provide opportunities and funding for various entities in the community through this “See You in Terre Haute” Community Plan.
The grant opportunities mirror the integral aspects outlined in the Community Plan. The categories include economic development, health & wellness, infrastructure, quality of life, talent attraction & retention and tourism.
