Friend,
This is a difficult day for Kentucky with loved ones lost, communities destroyed and so much hurt and uncertainty for thousands more, but we Kentuckians are tough, resilient and generous people.
With thousands of Kentuckians hurting in the wake of the deadliest tornadoes in Kentucky history, Governor Beshear created a relief fund to assist our people.
Please join our leaders in contributing to the Team Western Kentucky Tornado Relief Fund. This is a dedicated fund to help our neighbors in Western Kentucky, where there is a growing need.
Our people are hurting and one thing we can always count on as Kentuckians is people who care. That is who we are.
We have lost at least 70 Kentuckians and Governor Beshear expects the number to increase as our heroic first responders continue to search house to house. Hundreds of Kentuckians, if not thousands, lost their homes and others will spend the night without power in frigid temperatures.
Along with contributing to the fund, we join the Governor and local officials in urging you to donate blood.
Our people are in desperate need of help. Please be generous and please help us be a source of hope for our fellow Kentuckians.
Many thanks to you all.
Colmon Elridge
Chairman of the Kentucky Democratic Party

I will give my donation to the Salvation Army or Catholic Charities. I got this notion from reading "The Shock Doctrine."
