People Helping People; SCAUG Thank You!

The SCAUG family honors the victims and survivors of the recent May/June tornadoes and flooding in Oklahoma.  The devastation from the tornadoes, hail, and flooding the past three weeks throughout central Oklahoma have affected a great many people and changed many lives. Watching the outpouring of assistance from first responders, emergency managers, volunteers, and all kinds of people in Oklahoma and from many other parts of the world was glorious and enlightening! Another constant in our lives that we so often take for granted; the one of people helping people; family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and yes strangers! None of us regardless of obvious differences, economic status, politics, education level, health and well-being, has to go it alone when we come face to face with the many perils and devastation that come with the forces of nature. The SCAUG family with humility and grace says thank you to all the wonderful people wherever you are, who gave generously and unselfishly to help others during the most recent and urgent times of need. People Helping People - Thank you!
