New website to help connect Nebraskans with flood assistance 

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – Nebraskans who need housing, tools or other assistance to recover from this month’s flooding can now post a request on a new state website.

Gov. Pete Ricketts unveiled the website Thursday as part of the effort to help flooding victims and collect private donations for the effort. The website can be viewed at www.nebraska.gov/nebraska-strong/.

The website is accepting requests for housing, tools and other needs. Requests will be reviewed before being posted.

The Nebraska Emergency Management Agency has also set up a hotline for general public questions. The number is 402-817-1551.

The Nebraska Broadcasters Association is also hosting a flood relief drive on Friday in partnership with the American Red Cross. A phone bank will be open 5 a.m. through 11 p.m. Friday. The toll-free number is 1-844-278-8555.
