COLLECTION FOR TORNADO VICTIMS

MADISON — In response to the recent tornado devastation in Kentucky, a committee of Madison residents has been formed to determine what is needed to help with relief efforts. The group has been told that the greatest need is money.

The group is working with the Madison Christian Ministerial Association and Chase Bank to raise money for the Kentucky Relief Fund. The goal is to have funds available by February 15.

Checks or money orders can be deposited at the Madison and Painesville branches of Chase Bank. Please note that cash will not be accepted for this effort. Please make checks and money orders payable to Madison Christian Ministerial Association.

If you would like to mail your donation, please mail it to MCMA, POBox 574, Madison, OH 44057. Please note that 100% of funds raised will go to those in need and are tax deductible.

It is expected that after this fundraising effort, the group intends to have a non-perishable collection of items needed for this need and will be delivered directly to Kentucky. Details will follow.

Committee members include Pastor John Germaine, Bill Robinson, Pete Baldwin, Dave Van Dusen, Pete and Dick Turkenburg.
