Date: 2024
Location: Indian Lake, OH

In March 2024, a significant EF3 tornado struck Indian Lake, Ohio, causing extensive damage to hundreds of homes and structures in the area. Approximately 250 families were displaced as a result of the storm. Unfortunately, many of the affected homes were found to be uninsured or underinsured, significantly hindering the rebuilding efforts in the community.

In response to a funding request by the Western Ohio Home Builders Association, the HBIDRF assisted in providing grant funds to a local non-profit to fully build a new home of for two disabled brothers, one of whom is a veteran, whose existing home was damaged beyond repair in the tornado.
