Rebuild Three Forks Tradition from Flood

Donation protected
My parents newspaper, The Three Forks Tradition, has been completely devasted and wiped out by the recent flood in Eastern Kentucky.  They are the people that never ask for help but always are there to help others.  Today, they need our help.   The newspaper office was under four feet of water and they have lost everything- computers, furniture, thousands of historical documents and more. We would appreciate any help you can give . 

Bob and Linda and Josh have worked countless hours over the years for this community as well as monetary donations.   A few examples are the War Memorial, The Woolly Worm Festival, The Historical Museum, 4th of July Fireworks, trophies for basketball tournaments, etc.  It is time to give back and help them out.

To put into perspective, Josh risked his life to save one computer from the water, built the paper from his kitchen table this week and packaged and delivered from his living room because they have never missed a week of publishing. Other than this one computer, they lost EVERYTHING else inside their business.


Any donations beyond what they really need will be shared back with the community they love so much.
