The Latest from VEA

Our brothers and sisters in Southwest Virginia were hit last week with catastrophic flooding for the fifth time in the last five years. This devastation has left many without power, food, water, and transportation, and has forced many schools to close indefinitely. Help be a part of recovery efforts! VEA staff has compiled a list of experienced and effective organizations that are on the ground helping, right now, and will reach even more folks in need with the help of our contributions. We’re all in this together!

Schools Closed Indefinitely
