FORT ATKINSON, WI — Moved by a compelling narrative of manifold hardships written by a local woman who was volunteering for a relief agency in Louisiana, St Peter’s Episcopal Church in Fort Atkinson raised $1,952 for the victims of flooding in Louisiana at an event on Saturday, August 27th . The funds were forwarded to Episcopal Relief and Development for disbursement. The flooding, which has been described as “once in a millennium,” killed 13 people and damaged over 100,000 homes but has received scant coverage in the major news outlets.
