Severe storms and possible tornadoes pounded the South on Monday, injuring more than 100 people and killing at least two in Alabama, including a man who lived in an area devastated by a deadly twister outbreak in the spring.

Homes were flattened, windows were blown out of cars and roofs were peeled back in the middle of the night in the rural community of Oak Grove near Birmingham. As dawn broke, residents surveyed the damage and officials used chainsaws to clear fallen trees. (Courtesy of Huffington Post)

ICNA Relief disaster response team was on the ground, they surveyed the damage and delivered tarp to the residents. Our team is making connections with the local church who will be coordinating the POD (point of distribution) and we are now gathering supplies for donation. Further details will be posted soon.

Help End the Refugee Crisis in America

Imagine it’s the middle of winter and you arrive in the United States with just the clothes on your back. You come from a country where you have never seen snow, only to be resettled in the North East. You are placed in a dingy apartment with only a few mattresses on the floor and a couple of blankets. This scenario is all too familiar to the many families brought to the United States as refugees.

An Iraqi family arrived in the middle of the winter, a husband and wife with two small children, who were placed in a unit which did not have a refrigerator. Fortunately as it was cold, they were able to store their food outside their back door. Unfortunately, they were only given one mattress on the floor and a few blankets to share.
