Local Sources - Jasper Group issued a statement on Monday morning announcing a tornado relief effort.

Our hearts go out to all those grappling with the aftermath of the tragic storms that ripped through the area over the weekend. As our neighbors begin the process to recovery, our hope is to provide support and relief in any way that we can. 

Jasper Group will be sending trucks to the Mayfield, Kentucky area to provide needed items.
