PA MDS units still responding to fall floods
Many people in central Pennsylvania are still not back in their homes after last September's record setting floods. MDS units from northern PA south to the Lancaster County area are still at work. Following busy fall clean up activity, remodeling and possibly complete rebuild jobs are still coming forward. Volunteers are still needed. Contact Region I Directory, Ray Zimmerman, rmzimm(at)windstream.net for northern PA or in the Lancaster County area, contact the Volunteer Coordinator if you are available to assist in the coming months.
