Sumiton First Assembly of God, 85 Yates Road Sumiton, AL 35148, is now a satellite or relief station for Convey of Hope.

Anyone affected by the Walker county tornado can pick up supplies like water, hygiene products, baby products, ice, ect from the church. We are also accepting any donations of money, water, clothes, hygiene products, baby products, etc. 

For more information, drop by the church or call 205-648-8197 or 205-994-1100.

Number one volunteer tip is to be willing to go with the flow.

Because there are so many people and communities that have been impacted by this disaster everything is a work in progress. So please be patient and kind with the volunteer clearing houses they are getting assignments and passing them along as fast as they can.

The best thing to do to find a volunteer opportunity is to  follow several different organizations like Hands on Birmingham, Christian Service Mission, The Red Cross, and the United Way on the web or Facebook and as they announce an opportunity jump in. If the opportunity fills up don't worry there will be many more opportunities.

Everyone wants to go to ground zero to help out however authorities are limiting the number of people that can be in these areas at one time.

Several communities are still hurting and asking for help after the deadly tornadoes ripped through Alabama on Wednesday.

Fox 6 wants to make sure that everyone who needs help, gets help. To make sure all areas – big and small - get the help they need, we will post messages we receive here.

If you're looking for a community to help, this is the place to find those who may have been overlooked by relief efforts. To get a message to us, email web@wbrc.com or visit our Facebook page or our Live Blog or call 205-583-4321.

Thank you for your efforts.
