Rebuilding After Floods: Costs and Acts of Kindness

These smaller expenses are often overlooked and rarely reimbursed, even though they can take a significant toll on an individual or family bank account. The costs quickly add up, including expenses for food, hygiene supplies, and pet care, among others. Many families in Kentucky, who were affected by the floods, are struggling to rebuild their lives due to the hidden costs of rebuilding after a flood.
