Storm Shelter Scholarship

Announcing the 2021 Storm Shelter Scholarship recipient

Storm Shelter Scholarship

We are excited to announce the 2021 and first recipient of our Storm Shelter Scholarship. Landen Godsey and his family were nominated and chosen to receive a storm shelter on behalf of Safe-T-Shelter. Landen was critically injured and lost both his parents during a tornado in 2019 in Town Creek, AL. After hearing Landen’s story we felt he would be the perfect candidate for our very first Storm Shelter Scholarship. A shelter was provided to him and his family at zero cost. This shelter will ensure that Landen will always have a safe place to go and hopefully provide him peace of mind the next time severe weather strikes. Read More
