Although flood waters in Iroquois County have receded, many still feel the effects. Riverside Healthcare is committed to supporting those impacted in the community and joins the mission of the Watseka Area Long Term Recovery Committee.

Riverside's donation of $2,500 will go toward funding the Committee's ongoing efforts including identification, prioritization, and provision of items needed by families such as goods, services or funds.

Riverside donates to provide for families in need.
