On August 1st, a major storm hit the Indianapolis area, bringing several inches of rain in a short time. The flash flooding overwhelmed the sewer system, and with nowhere for the water to go, it began to back up into people's basements.

Sarah Watson's basement took on several inches of water, and because the water was contaminated with sewage, almost everything had to be discarded. Clothing, furniture, appliances, hundreds of books, and keepsakes filled a 20-yard dumpster. Her floor was ruined, and the bottom 20 inches of drywall had to be removed.

Sarah lives in the basement and has been temporarily displaced. The financial burden of construction costs and replacing the items that were lost will not be offset by insurance. The funds raised will help Sarah rebuild her living space, replace essential items, and cover the costs of repairs so she can return home.

Everyone who knows Sarah knows how generous she is. Let's return that generosity and help get her back on her feet. Your support will make a real difference in helping Sarah recover from this devastating loss.
