It is amazing that more were not killed in this horrible tornado. From photos it is hard to tell whether or not these homes had basements. Without a basement or storm cellar where would these people have gone for safety? It is just horrible - destruction everywhere with more storms coming. It's hard to imagine trying to find housing and other needs for so many in need. I'm sure at this time money would be better than sending items that could be ruined in other storms.
