Alabama Tornado Response
In response to the recent tornadoes that struck Alabama, we reached out to our partner network in the affected areas. Three requests have been fulfilled for the American Diabetes Association who is coordinating relief efforts with public health officials of the Emergency Management Association in Jefferson County.
Items that have been requested include personal care products, insulin syringes, nutritionals, test strips and meters, and antifungals.
The value is estimated to be over $8,370.
