What I.E.H.A. Has Done For Me “WOW! I am very impressed with this great organization that I have the privilege of being a member of. We were not effected by the storms/tornadoes that occurred in our region the first week of February, but our neighboring counties were. Again, thanks for the concern and your kindness through the e-mail that you sent out after these devastating storms. Things that people like myself will always remember is that ‘It’s not what we do, it’s not what we say, but it’s the way we make you feel.’ You’ve made me feel really good about being a member of I.E.H.A.” -David Maxwell, C.E.H.
