(Greenfield, Iowa) – If anyone is wondering how to help the residents of Greenfield by donating cash or supplies, please see the St. John’s Catholic Church Facebook page, as that is a GREAT resource of information. The link is pinned to the kjan.com Facebook page.

An updated needs list (as of late Thursday) to help loca residents, include: Casey’s gas cards, Fareway gift cards, Dollar General gift cards (those stores we have here locally). Many residents lost everything, and many have lost power.

St. John’s officials say tarps are not currently needed, as they have an ample supply now. Plywood is also not needed, because there is a good supply on-hand. Clothing was collected at the Adair County Health and Fitness Center, and St. John’s says as of Thursday, they had enough clothing. Residents in Greenfield in need of clothing are invited to come in and shop. Friday’s hours are 8-a.m. To 6-p.m.

Grief and Trauma Counseling will be in Greenfield over the next few days.

If you’d like to make an online donation, please use the Greater Greenfield Community Foundation‘s paypal link: https://www.paypal.com/donate/…

This is the official way to give online! Designate ‘Tornado Relief’.
