Rural lifestyle retailer makes contributions to
American Red Cross, STAR Fund of Texas and local nonprofits
following tornado outbreak and widespread flooding
Tractor Supply Company (NASDAQ: TSCO), the largest rural
lifestyle retailer in the United States, and its foundation have
taken action to provide support in the wake of deadly storms across
the U.S. The funding will support communities that were
particularly hard-hit across Michigan, Nebraska, Oklahoma,
Tennessee and Texas.
The Tractor Supply Company Foundation has donated $100,000 to
American Red Cross Disaster Relief to assist residents in affected
areas, and an additional $50,000 to the State of Texas Agriculture
Relief (STAR) Fund to support Texas farmers, ranchers, producers
and agribusiness owners impacted by recent severe weather.
Tractor Supply stores in affected areas have also distributed
gift cards to local organizations and shelters to purchase supplies
such as pet and animal products, tools, tarps, gloves, generators
and more. Team Members are helping their neighbors however
possible, whether that means ensuring stores are well-stocked with
emergency supplies, making those supplies more accessible or simply
being available for support.
“When disaster strikes, our first thoughts are always of our
many friends and neighbors in these communities,” said Marti
Skold-Jordan, manager of the Tractor Supply Company Foundation. “It
is our privilege to contribute to these relief organizations and
offer on-the-ground support whenever possible to help these
communities recover and rebuild.”
Additionally, a portion of funds raised during the Tractor
Supply and Miranda Lambert’s MuttNation Foundation Relief for
Rescues fundraiser has been allocated to help animal shelters in
hard-hit areas. In partnership with Greater Good Charities, the
Relief For Rescues Fund has also provided families with pets in
Texas and Oklahoma with pet food and wellness vaccines.
From May 6-10, an estimated 125 tornadoes were reported across
the U.S., accompanied by high winds, rain and hail across the
Plains, the Midwest and the Southeast. As many as 440 trained Red
Cross disaster workers are helping people affected by the tornadoes
and flooding, assisting with shelter, meals and snacks, health
services and relief supplies.
