Wise: We are one Kentucky family this Christmas season By Senator Max Wise In light of the tragic aftermath of the severe weather that swept across the Commonwealth last weekend, instead of delivering season's greetings and wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas, my message takes a different tone. I pray that your Christmas season is filled with love and blessings, and you will remember the reason for the season. However, as we all know, many of our fellow Kentuckians are facing unimaginable pain, grief, and loss. That includes our neighbors here in the 16th District. For many, the seasonal festivities that make Christmas so joyful will not be their experience this year. The days, weeks, and months ahead will prove difficult in ways most can never imagine. That is why we must unite as one Kentucky and work to bring hope, love, and peace to those who lost so much in a matter of hours. For a great example of our state's united response, look to the Team Western Kentucky Tornado Relief Fund, which has raised millions in contributions to help Kentuckians impacted by severe weather. Consider making a tax-deductible contribution at TeamWKYReliefFund.ky.gov. The Kentucky Department of Agriculture and Kentucky Farm Bureau have joined forces to help raise funds for agricultural-related recovery efforts. You can donate to the Kentucky Agriculture Relief Fund via the GoFundMe page at gofundme.com/f/kyagrelieffund. Additionally, I want to bring your attention to more local efforts. Taylor County Bank has set up an account to collect funds for tornado victims. You can bring donations to any Taylor County Bank branch. I am grateful for everyone who has stepped up to help others during this heartbreaking time. Coming off the heels of the pandemic, many who have been personally impacted are understandably facing challenging times. We can do so much as a community to ease the pain of the losses suffered. Lend a helping hand at your local shelter or supply distribution center. Consider donating to Toys for Tots to provide Christmas to a child who has been forever affected by this tragedy. Donate blood if you are able and lift up your neighbors in prayer. If you were directly impacted, please visit DisasterAssistance.gov or call FEMA at 1-800-621-3362 to find how to apply for disaster relief. You will need to provide information such as your:
The devastation experienced in our communities impacted by this natural disaster will weigh heavily on all of us this holiday season. Let us be grateful for the blessings in our lives, including those who are there for us in moments of need --be it family, friends, neighbors, or strangers offering a helping hand. I want to express my sincerest gratitude to We cannot undo the tragedies across the Commonwealth; we can choose to be a positive force for recovery as a united Kentucky.
