 In response to the western Kentucky tornadoes from Friday, nine local school districts have collaborated to create the Stuff the Bus drive to help students and families. Monday, Mountain Top spoke with Pikeville High School's principal Brandon Blackburn about donation efforts and how you can help. Well, we were keeping a close eye on everything that was going on with our neighbors in western Kentucky and of course this area is just known for always thinking about how we can help others. And so as the news rolled in and we discovered how it impacted the people on western Kentucky and of course those surrounding counties out in there, we just decided that with our region friends that we would try to lend aid and support and with some of the superintendents and those that were in those regional positions, they kind of divvied up what everybody could do and we ended up with toys and what better way, especially around Christmas, to lend a hand than providing some children toys, especially with all that they have lost here in this recent few days. Here at Pikeville Medical Center's Heart and Vascular Institute, we have assembled a comprehensive team of cardiac specialists bringing expertise from all regions of the nation and the world. We have coupled that with cutting edge technology, providing them the best equipment and operating rooms available. The result is comprehensive cardiac care for the people of our region that is second to none. The Heart and Vascular Institute at Pikeville Medical Center. Even with little press of the event, Girls Basketball Coach Christy Orem and Principal Blackburn go on to say that the response has been great. I couldn't help but smile when I walked in and I was like, oh my goodness, like I just didn't, I don't know what I was expecting, but I didn't expect that and I mean, but I mean, I should have expected it because our community and everyone has just always been so great and always gave. Well it's simply been incredible, I mean from the moment that we walked in today, you know the word's not really been out except in some social media outlets and when we came in people had their arms full with bags and boxes and they're still rolling in today and just like I said, the people around here, they're always thinking about how they can help others. I think it's just what Kentucky is all about, that's what we do, is we take care of each other and we all are there to support each other and I think, you know, we all know that because we all live here and we know that's what we're about. To donate toys, you can visit Pikeville and Pike County Schools. To donate other items, you can visit mountain-topmedia for a list of participating locations.
