Donations for Kentucky ranchers are now being collected, following a catastrophic tornadic event that occurred over the weekend.

Whitaker said there are two ways to help: make a monetary donation to the Kentucky Cattlemen’s Foundation (all donations will be used to help local producers) or by directly donating goods.
