Sheryl Crow Will Auction Off 1959 Mercedes to Help Schools after Joplin Tornado
It’s been two months since the EF-5 tornado hit and destroyed much of Joplin. Since then, support has been pouring in from people from all walks of life. Some unique support is coming from Missouri native and Grammy Award winner Sheryl Crow. She’s auctioning off one of her prized possessions to help Joplin Schools.
“Kids are going to be here in 22 days,” said Joplin Superintendent C.J. Huff. “We talk about that countdown every day.”
The clock is ticking for the Joplin School District, which has set up temporary locations after three schools were destroyed by the tornado on May 22.
“This is truly, we believe, the marker of a community who is rebuilding, — that first day of school, getting kids to that sense of normalcy,” said Huff.
Joplin captured the hearts of many — from everyday people to celebrities like Crow.
