Minnesota – Winona County Flood Response

Volunteers are still needed to work on homes damaged by last year's flooding in Winona County.  Skilled leaders to lead teams of five people (a ratio of one skilled
person per five unskilled volunteers is required) will work on sheet hanging, carpentry, finish carpentry, taping and mudding, and painting.

A coordinator will guide teams to a job. The groups are needed immediately and through July and possibly later. Adult groups are preferred but older youth with skilled leaders are welcome.

If you can help with this important ministry, please call Rick Lane at (507) 457-8882 or Audrey Phelps, at phelps@umocm.com.
