Help Kentucky Tornado Survivors – Support Global Disaster Relief

Since Friday May 17, 2025, powerful tornadoes have torn through central Kentucky, destroying homes, killing at least 20 people in Laurel County, and displacing dozens of families. And it’s not over yet — more dangerous storms are expected in the coming weeks, putting already-devastated communities at even greater risk.

Entire neighborhoods in London, KY were leveled in minutes. Families are without shelter, power, food, or access to medical care. Hospitals are overwhelmed. Rural areas are struggling to reach help.

Global Disaster Relief, a nonprofit emergency aid organization, is urgently raising $75,000 to provide emergency food, medical supplies, and shelter for those affected — especially in Kentucky’s small, underserved towns.

What’s Happening:

May 17: Tornadoes strike Kentucky, leaving 28 dead across several states

London, KY hit hardest – 19 dead, entire communities flattened

22 families displaced, many without power, water, or transportation

80,000+ without electricity across 5 states

Next storms expected in days, threatening to strike again

Who Will Be Helped:

Families who lost their homes and belongings

Children and seniors left without basic necessities

Survivors in remote, hard-to-reach towns like London and surrounding areas

What We’re Doing:
Delivering emergency food, water, diapers, and medical kits

Supporting local hospitals and shelters

Coordinating with local responders for fast, targeted aid

Preparing for follow-up support as more storms develop

Your donation—no matter the size—can provide families, children, and tornado victims with emergency food, clean water, and medical kits.

Our on-the-ground team is working directly with survivors to help rebuild what’s been broken by this devastating natural disaster. Every dollar brings critical aid and hopes to those who need it most.
Please donate today. Every dollar helps rebuild what nature has torn apart.
