ST. LOUIS – North St. Louis property owner Terry Owens remains heartbroken over Friday’s tornado that destroyed the home where she and two tenants lived.

“It’s mentally overwhelming, and sometimes I feel like I’m losing my mind,” she said. “It’s too much.”

She’s hopeful someone will offer her help boarding the property. 

“This is all I have,” said Owens.

Throughout north St. Louis, various community-driven pop-up relief sites are on street corners offering support.

“It’s nice to give back and show love,” said Ebonie Kelly. 

The north St. Louis resident helped barbecue hot dogs, hamburgers and give away chips and bottled water near the intersection of N. Newstead and St. Louis avenues.

“This is the time that we need each,” she said.

Some area businesses have also been distributing relief supplies. 

“It’s all about acts of kindness,” said Ronald Burns, BullDozer LLC. “We’re giving to the people in the neighborhood.”  

Karrington Winters and employees from Classics Bar and Grill were also giving away food and drinks. 

“I see a lot of people just walking around and they have nowhere to turn,” she said. Winters said the outpouring of support is heartwarming.

Dana Hardin lived in an apartment that had roof damage, a power outage and water damage from rain that followed Friday’s tornado.

She hopes more help will be offered to displaced residents.

“Anything would be helpful,” she said.

The City of St. Louis is providing information about how to help and where to access help.
