TENNESSEE FLOOD RELIEF :)

How to HELP!!!

Okay. So Middle Tennessee is flooded. We all know that by now. And chances are, most of us have either been affected by this situation, or know someone who has. I have friends and co-workers who have lost everything. It's still hard to grasp the extent of the devastation here, even living in the area. The water in downtown took my breath away when I saw it earlier this week, and just driving home is a constant reminder of the destruction in Bellevue. There is no end to tragic stories from this disaster. All from RAIN-It's insane to think that something usually considered such a positive, and so beautiful can cause such destruction.

I am asking you to do what you can and try to help. :)

The link above has a great list of resources to reach out to. Whether you can donate goods, time, or money, you can make a difference in helping bring the people of Middle Tennesse back to life again!

If you would like to donate goods, I will be in Bowling Green this weekend. I would be more than happy to pick them up from you, or you can drop them off to me on Sunday morning, 8am-12pm. I will be making a drop off Sunday afternoon or Monday morning to a shelter AND to the Salvation Army. ANY AND EVERYTHING will be greatly appreciated.

If you want to donate $-please use one of the links of this page. They will show you how to make a donation via Credit Card. Or, if you want to make a cash/check donation, I can turn that in for you as well. I just ask you please put it in a sealed envelope with the name of the organization you would like to donate to on the front.

If you would like to donate your time and get hands on, that would be AMAZING! Organizations all over town are setting up rebuiling and tear down groups for volunteers. There are too many options to mention here, so please, check out the list and choose one!

OR, if you want to donate and want something in return, please purchase our WE ARE NASHVILLE tee shirt. 100% of proceeds are being donated. http://store.coolpeoplecare.org/products/we-are-nashville-t-shirt

Please, if you can help, do it! There are so many people that would greatly appreciate it. :) If we all do just a little, we can make a big change. :)

Lots and lots of LOVE...Amanda

PLEASE FORWARD TO EVERYONE IN BG! :)
