Please direct any assist you are able to our neighbors during their emergency.
As you may be aware, the Town of Gila Bend, AZ has declared a state of emergency due to flooding during the recent monsoon storms. They have already lost two members of their community and many others have been displaced. The Chamber of Commerce has requested assistance in the form of funding to help pay for housing for community members who have lost their homes.
The American Legion Department of Arizona is going to assist with this effort. Sending this out is one step. We request that this information be distributed with widest dissemination in order to request support from other Arizona Posts who may be able to assist.
