Our hearts are heavy for our community and beyond. ❤️
The flooding that has impacted New Castle and so many of our surrounding communities has been devastating. We know there are families, individuals, businesses and entire neighborhoods dealing with loss, damage and uncertainty as they figure out what comes next.
While it’s difficult to see so much destruction in a place we call home, it has also been incredible to see our communities come together. Neighbors helping neighbors, local businesses opening their doors, organizations providing supplies and people simply asking, “What can I do to help?” That kind of support means a lot, especially when so many are facing an incredibly difficult situation.
We also know social media can be unpredictable, and not every post makes it into every person’s feed. Someone who needs important information may never even see it.
That’s why we’ve started compiling information for New Castle, Henry County, Connersville, Cambridge City and surrounding communities. We’ll continue adding resources as we find them and will do our best to keep this information updated.
Our hope is simple: that this information helps someone find a place to turn, a resource they didn’t know existed, or a little bit of help during an incredibly difficult time.
