The tornadoes that struck Minden in the spring of 2024 changed the trajectory of our community. Homes filled with decades of memories were destroyed in an instant. Years of work poured into our businesses were erased.
What wasn’t lost, though, were our connections and our resilience. We’re moving forward with strength, seeking to better our community for the long-term. This process doesn’t happen overnight; rather, it will take years for our community to fully recover. Still, the time to start that work is now. Keep checking back on this page to see what’s happening and what’s coming soon.
Our long-term recovery efforts are being supported by the Iowa West Foundation, United Way of the Midlands Disaster Recovery Fund, and Pottawattamie County gaming funds. The City is grateful for their support.

We’re working to rebuild our community and imagine what we will look like in the future. To start this work, we want to hear from you, our community members. Your insights and ideas will help us shape the vision for Minden, which will then be supported by specific goals and, eventually, projects and policies. We’ll also be working to identify how to pay for these projects and building relationships with the partners needed to do just that along the way. Participate in the survey here.
A special thanks goes to those organizations that have supported our recovery work. They include:
