30 May Donations For Greensburg TornadoWe were waiting for things to settle down a little before we made an attempt to help out the community of the Greensburg Kansas, in Kiowa County that was devastated by an F-5 tornado on May 6, 2007.
As far as we know, all of the landowners and their families we lease from survived, but those that lived in town and several others that lived on their land close to town lost just about everything.
We would like to ask anyone that is interested in helping out send a cash donation to: Haviland Friends Church Make checks payable to the church notation for tornado relief.
If you decide to make a contribution please make note you are associated with Mid-America Hunting Association so they know the direction the contribution came from. Greensburg before and after.
