NWA Strong: Where to Find Help and Resources

Updated for Saturday, June 1st

Memorial Day weekend took a turn for the worst when an EF3 tornado ripped through our area, destroying homes and so many businesses along its path.

Despite the devastation, our community has quickly pulled together and organized cleaning crews, shelters, food banks and more.

We want to do our part and help spread the word. Below you will find additional links along with our own list of resources who will be serving Saturday, June 1st:
