The St. Gabriel Disaster Relief and Assistance Fund (DRAF) was created as a response to the catastrophic and unprecedented rainstorms and flooding in August 2025. The DRAF exists to provide one-time, compassionate, supplemental financial assistance to parishioners in urgent need due to damage or losses related to the storms and subsequent flooding in August 2025. The DRAF is intended as a source of last resort, to be used when the individual or family requesting assistance has explored other possibilities of assistance from appropriate sources (Dial 211, FEMA, insurance providers, etc.).
Distribution of the funds will be guided by prayer, fairness, and the mission of St. Gabriel Catholic Parish Church.
All funds received will be distributed by November 30, 2025, and no further donations or requests will be accepted or considered after October 14, 2025.
Any questions about this fund can be sent to Mike Reichert, [email protected], or Connie Helm, [email protected]
