Help Support Tornado Victims in the Fox Valley Community Dear Rotarians, On Monday, July 27, tornadoes and severe storms impacted the Menasha community and surrounding Fox Valley area, leaving many of our fellow Wisconsinites facing significant damage and uncertainty. We recognize that the full extent of the physical destruction—and the emotional toll these storms have taken—runs deep throughout the Fox Valley and across our communities. 

To every Rotarian and citizen who has been affected, please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. We also recognize that many of you are supporting family members, friends and neighbors as your communities begin the difficult process of recovery. If you are looking for ways to support those impacted by the storms, we encourage you to do so through the trusted organizations leading relief efforts in our communities. Every act of kindness—whether through a donation, volunteering when it is safe to do so or simply checking in on a colleague or neighbor—helps bring health, healing and hope to our afflicted communities as we work to strengthen our communities as they recover. - If you would like to make a donation to support the Ascension Associate Assistance Fund, please visit: giveawf.org/donate.
- Rotary District 6270 is looking into options how we can support those in Fox Cities Community.
- Volunteer Fox Cities has created a sign-up page for community members interested in helping with storm response and recovery efforts.
- Please do not report directly to damaged areas unless you have been assigned through an organized volunteer effort.
- Fox Valley Humane Association is collecting donations of dog and cat food, cat litter, and other pet supplies.
- Reach out to local food pantries to see what they are in need of.
Thank you for the compassion, resilience and unwavering commitment you demonstrate every day. Together, we will continue supporting one another and the communities we are privileged to serve as they recover and rebuild. |
