Kentucky Strong Disaster Relief Fund

Dear KJA Members:
 
First, our hearts go out to all those affected by the flooding across Eastern Kentucky over the last several days. There is devastation in so many areas, and we are prepared to help. As everyone recalls, KJA had a rapid response to the devastating tornados back in December and learned many lessons in our response. Throughout the year, we have discussed those lessons to improve our response and make an even greater impact.
 
After the tornados, we updated and improved our KJA Disaster Toolkit. This Attorney Toolkit can help Kentuckians with filing insurance claims where there is insurance in the coming weeks and also be a guide for those attorneys wishing to offer their assistance. This helps document information for insurance as well as the American Red Cross and FEMA. This Toolkit will be a part of the solution for so many of those in need.
 
We are also including a prepared document to provide to legislators/officials, which they can provide their constituents to help them navigate the claims process. You can access it here.
 
More immediately, the KJA Executive Committee has been reaching out to some local officials to see what is needed most.  Frankly, the needs are still being assessed by those on the ground.  As more information becomes available, we will ask you to give of your time, treasure or talent in the most appropriate way to help our brothers and sisters affected by this tragedy.  However, if you would like to act now and give toward these relief efforts through the KJA (100 percent of the money will go toward helping those affected by the disaster), you may do so here at Kentucky Strong Disaster Relief Fund.  While these donations are not tax deductible, we learned through our work with the American Red Cross and FEMA, having funds available for immediate needs is invaluable. These funds can get to people on the ground as soon as requested. We ensure all funds received go to those in need.
 
We are also placing this message on our KJA Facebook page so you can “share” with your family and friends who wish to help.
 
I am certain your circle of friends is wondering how they can assist in a safe and secure manner that will work towards getting their donations into the right hands. Please take a minute and make a donation.  Let’s take action!

Thank you,
 
Rob Mattingly
KJA President
