Muskingum County Community Foundation activates Community Cares Fund following flooding in Roseville and Crooksville

The Muskingum County Community Foundation (MCCF) has activated its Community Cares Fund in response to the severe flooding affecting residents and families in Roseville and Crooksville.

“Our hearts are with everyone impacted by this disaster,” said Brian Wagner, CEO. “The Community Cares Fund allows our community to come together to support immediate recovery efforts and help impacted residents begin rebuilding.”

Donations to the Community Cares Fund will support relief and recovery initiatives identified in partnership with the American Red Cross for flood relief and recovery assistance.

Additionally, the United Way of Muskingum, Perry & Morgan Counties is accepting donations to assist neighbors impacted by flooding and support local relief efforts. Cleaning supplies, bottled water, diapers, shelf-stable food, and personal care items may be dropped off at North Valley Bank locations and will be distributed to people and families in need.

Community members wishing to contribute may do so online at: https://www.mccf.org/Roseville-Crooksville-Relief/
