100% of the funds, minus credit card fees, will be given as grants to organization that are addressing the ongoing needs of victims and community members.
CFEA says it will work closely with local partners, who know where the needs are most intense, to ensure that resources make it to where they are most needed.
“We recognize that in this time of need, it is important to support those on the ground directly addressing the needs of the community and the families affected by this needless loss of life. Through this fundraiser, the CFEA seeks to send love and compassion to the Dadeville Community,” said CFEA President Katie Whittelsey.
