Five families.

"It is critical for your long term recovery of your towns to maintain local control of donated funds. Consider encouraging family and friends to donate locally or to families directly. Funding will become much harder to access as the months wear on. " -April Clemons Crotts from Washington, IL, a community devastated by tornadoes back in November of 2013.

Our home is Rochelle, our radio show broadcasts daily from the downtown of Rochelle, and Rochelle is where we dearly love so many people. And many of these very dear friends lost everything on April 9th, 2015 when a devastating tornado ripped through Northern Illinois in the late afternoon and early evening.

Every dime this fund receives through this GoFundMe campaign will go directly to five families in the Cherry Hills neighborhood of Rochelle whose homes were completely devastated: the Haedts, the VanVickles, the Dickeys, the Dickows and the Belmontes.

This fund is managed by The Michael Koolidge Show, LLC, 401 N. 6th St., Rochelle, IL 61068. 


No amount is too little!
