An emergency fund has been established to provide assistance to the families affected by the tragic fire in the 630 Cedar apartment building that occurred last Wednesday morning. Five lives were lost, three people are still hospitalized and many more were displaced from their homes. Contributions to this fund will be used to help victims of the fire with food, clothing, shelter, medical care and other emergency needs that may arise. Many members of our community are hurting as a result of the fire. To donate to the fund go to: https://www.givemn.org/story/Emergencyfund.
Several staff will be meeting in the Sabo Center this afternoon at 1:30 PM to discuss other ways that the Augsburg community can support our neighbors. Please join if you are interested in being part of this effort.
