KMEA Supports Ottawa Community Following Tornado

On April 13th an EF2 tornado struck and caused significant damage within the City of Ottawa.  KMEA staff came together looking for means of providing support to local families in the community.  A staff food drive was organized to be donated to the Hope House in Ottawa.

A total of 253 pounds of food items, along with personal care and cleaning supplies, were delivered to the Hope House helping to meet immediate needs as the community continues to recover.

Hope House is a vital resource for the citizens of Ottawa serving the community every day.  We are grateful and thankful to the KMEA staff for their generosity and stepping up in time of need for one of our member cities.
