ALL FOUND OKAY: Much Help Still Needed
Please continue to help us fill in the “?” listed in the chart below/attached. Thank you.
$4,171 Collected So Far
Please keep those contributions coming in. We will make sure the funds are given directly to the chiropractors and their staff in need. The donations are not tax deductible because we are not a 501c(3) charitable organization, but we can do what the other organizations cannot. We can guarantee your money goes directly to the chiropractic community. The Red Cross and other charitable organizations cannot pass your donations on through to any specific group in need.
Challenge: MSCA District 2 donated $1,000 to the Joplin Relief Fund and would like to challenge other districts to donate what they can toward the effort.
Challenge Response So Far: MSCA District 1 answered the District 2 challenge with a donation of $1,500. Thank you District 1.
Seminar Donation: At the Coding Seminar yesterday, May 26, in Jefferson City, the attendees combined donation totaled $1,051.
Mail-in Donations: The MSCA has just started receiving the mail-in donations but would like to report a total of $620 as of May 27.
Donations: If you would like to make a donation to those affected, the MSCA will organize the collection and make sure it is delivered to the chiropractic families in need. Simply make your checks out to MSCA and put “Joplin Relief Fund” in the memo of your check and mail to:
MSCA – Joplin220 E. DunklinJefferson City, MO 65101

Thank you for having this list available–I have been searching for the well being of Dr Stephen Carlson and his family. Such a great relief to learn they are okay. But of course sorry about Ashley’s house. Rhonda Ralston

Glad to hear that everyone from Dr. Skaggs office was ok.
Dr. Steven Skaggs, D.C. on Fri, 19th Aug 2011 1:33 pm
August 15th, 2011. What a day, for out of the rubble and debris, emerges a new Skaggs Chiropractic. The May 22nd tornado dashed the hopes, dreams and the lives of the people of Joplin, MO. In less in 19 minutes over 500 businesses were leveled. Skaggs Chiropractic was totally leveled. It is our re-investing and rebuilding that demonstrates our communities resolve to recover from the ruts carved in our lives and our city. Just as the fabled Phoenix, we too shall rise again, bigger and better than ever!
