            The Salvation Army thanks the media and the wider community of Logan 
			County for the timely response to the call for animal carriers for 
			the family that lost their Emden home. Thanks to the Humane Society 
			of Logan County as well as other animal advocates and volunteers for 
			responding so quickly. The need for four animal carriers has been 
			met as of this afternoon (Tuesday). Thanks also to several agencies 
			that have collaborated with The 
			Salvation Army to assist with a variety of needs, including 
			clothing, food and medical care. 
			 
			The family is not able yet to accept donations of furniture or 
			household furnishings. Any individuals, organizations or agencies 
			that 
			wish to pledge donations of household furnishings or furniture 
			for the family are asked to contact Rebecca Van Nydeggen 
			directly at The Salvation Army Keest Center by phone at 217-732-7890 or by e-mail 
			to Rebecca_Van_Nydeggen@usc.salvationarmy.org. 
			 
			Additional information will be shared as it is available.
