All of us at NTCA are devastated by the news of deadly tornadoes that struck Kentucky, Tennessee, Illinois, Arkansas, Missouri and Mississippi overnight. We have already heard from NTCA members in affected areas who need generators and other supplies. In response to the storms, we have activated our Disaster Relief Clearinghouse. The clearinghouse is designed to identify, foster support for and provide assistance to members affected by natural disasters.
NTCA members in need of help or supplies are encouraged to make those needs known using the online form on the clearinghouse website. If we receive any requests for supplies, we will post them in the Disaster Relief Clearinghouse. Please check this site periodically—your resources may assist your fellow members in restoring essential communications service to their communities. NTCA will facilitate communications with affected telcos.
As always, we appreciate your willingness to help in the face of dangerous natural disasters. We will keep NTCA members updated as circumstances change in the coming days.
