Other disasters have risen to the fore, and the media has largely lost interest, but the people of West Virginia continue to struggle in the wake of the torrential flooding earlier this year.
West Virginians are not entirely forgotten, though. Today, 84 Lumber, Nemacolin Woodlands Resort and LPGA player Rachel Rohanna announced a partnership to aid West Virginia flood relief efforts. For every birdie Rohanna scores on the LPGA tour through the end of the year, a total of $300 will be donated to the West Virginia Voluntary Organizations Active in Disasters (WC-VOAD) general flood relief fund.
Rohanna, a Pennsylvania native, is sponsored by 84 Lumber and Nemacolin Woodlands Resort founder Joe Hardy.
“In a time of devastation, Rachel has taken it upon herself to help our West Virginia neighbors in any way she can,” said Maggie Hardy Magerko, President and Owner, 84 Lumber and Nemacolin Woodlands Resort. “As part of the 84 and Nemacolin family, we are excited to cheer Rachel on and to match her donation efforts.”
