Greater Michigan PMC Sponsors Youth Group Assisting Jackson, Tennessee Tornado Victims

Greater Michigan Plumbing & Mechanical Contractors Association, Inc. (PMC) helped sponsor the Dexter, St. Joseph Parish Youth Group's July trip to Jackson, TN to assist the National Relief Network in cleaning up after the May 4th tornado.

Scott Harding, the Executive Director of the National Relief Network, says "I have just returned from Jackson, Tennessee. During the last ten years only once before, in Oklahoma City, have I seen this much destruction caused by a tornado."

The National Relief Network sent out a call for help for the families in this Tennessee community. PMC helped sponsor the youth group volunteer assistance. The volunteers noted that pictures cannot come close to revealing what it's like to actually see the destruction of hundreds of homes, block after block and mile after mile. Many a tear was shed during this trip while hugging people who were overwhelmed beyond words to know that others cared enough to travel great distances to bring them aid.
