Along with many of their friends, co-workers and neighbors, they lost their vehicles, many possessions and the entire basement and main floor of their home. We are grateful for the many volunteers who helped to clean out, gut, and clean what is left of their home as they await future decisions regarding rebuilding. As we've had people reach out asking how they can help replace items lost, we have asked them to put together an Amazon wish list. Currently living with family members, these items will help with their temporary housing situation and give the kids a few things to play with as all of their toys had to be thrown out. Lists may be updated in the future. If you would like to purchase anything from the list, please ship to: Vander Maten Family 1623 6th St. , Hull, IA 51239 The school where they both teach and kids attend was also flooded and they lost many classroom materials. There may be opportunities in the future to help with Rock Valley classrooms once there is a plan and storage for those things. | | | | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
