This fund will be used to help the 5% of all victims who have lost everything in the 1.75 mile wide, 205 mph tornado, which swept the ground for almost an hour. Included in the 1500 people who were displaced, five Haviland Friends Church members also lost everything, two lived in Greensburg, and three lived on farms outside of town which were also completely destroyed. A church member has assured me that each donor will receive an accounting of how all gifts to this fund were used.
