Randolph County Tornado Recovery

On March 14, 2024, a tornado caused significant damage in Randolph County, including the destruction of homes, businesses, and places of worship, and left many residents injured.

The community response was immediate and overwhelming. Hospitals, first responders, volunteers, and organizations worked together to provide emergency care and support. The Randolph County Community Foundation, Indiana VOAD partners, local churches, and other groups quickly mobilized resources to meet urgent needs.

Our project focuses on assisting households identified at the Unmet Needs Table with repairs and rebuilding so families can safely return home. Funds will be used for construction materials and labor, helping 8–12 families restore their homes.

Through continued collaboration with the LTRG, Catholic Charities, ELCA partners, and local volunteers, we aim to support long-term recovery and strengthen the community.
