KMMJ List of Organizations Providing Flood Relief Efforts
In a crisis, one of the most difficult things is to get the needed resources to those that have the needs. This years flooding is no different. Many of you are praying for the needs and some have called the station to ask where to send donations or volunteer to help.
The following links will take you to some organizations that have already been involved in helping people in the flooded areas and are continuing to reach the current needs. They have been placed in alphabetical order to avoid preferences and given a short description so that you know their emphasis.
Please ask the Lord if He would have you volunteer or give to one of the following:
Faith Community Church
(ONeill, NE)
The church is reaching families affected among their
own congregation and other families known to them. (402) 336-3263

Kearney Restore Ministries
(Kearney, NE)
Restore went door-to-door in the Wood River area to
make direct contact with those in the flood area to assess the
individual needs. They have also been active in Gibbon.
Volunteers have been overwhelmed and they are currently looking
for additional volunteers to enter into a rotation that helps
them meet the long term needs.
Donation Link: People have been
super generous with donations but we would still love money to go
towards things such as drywall and bigger rebuilding materials.
Here is the link for monetary donations. Use the drop down for
Restore.
