Support is available for neighbors affected by the August 11 storms.

United Way Northwest Indiana is providing storm recovery assistance to eligible residents in Lake and Porter Counties who experienced financial hardship as a result of the severe storms.

If your household was impacted, you can complete our Storm Recovery Assistance Eligibility Application to see if you may qualify for available support.

Please allow 7–10 business days for our team to review your application. Due to anticipated demand, submitting an application does not guarantee assistance, and support is subject to program eligibility requirements and available funding.

If you do not qualify for this particular assistance, we will work to connect you with other resources that may be available.
