The Nashville Area Red Cross has been instrumental in organizing relief efforts for victims of the flood. The waters may have receded, but there is still much work to be done. More than 2000 people were displaced from their homes, and many businesses and homes have extensive damage.
You can donate in several different ways. You can donate online at www.middletennredcross.org,
or you can text “REDCROSS” to 90999 on your phone to make a $10 donation added to your monthly bill or debited from a prepaid account balance.
You can also go the old school way and just mail a check to:
Nashville Area Red Cross
2201 Charlotte Avenue
Nashville, TN 37203
In addition to financial assistance, the Red Cross always needs volunteers for a variety of positions. Check out their website to see how you can help. In times like these it is important for members of a community to stand together and help each other out.
