In our own backyard!

• We as a group had been working on several avenues for a community project when the devastating flooding effected Nashville.  It was no contest, this was our state, in our own backyard, this is our community!  

• The measure was voted on and unanimously passed for our project to be Nashville flood relief.

Nashville’s Devastation

Nashville’s Devastation

• The Nashville Flooding, the Tennessee flooding and even the Grand Ole Opry flood pictures show mass destruction. Leaving nothing in its way, the quick waters whipped over the banks of the Cumberland River and through the streets and parking lots as well as building of the City of Nashville and areas surrounding.   

• Getting little coverage of the incident while it was happening, America is finding out now about this overwhelming devastation and offer to help. The people of Tennessee are a strong bunch but they could still used some help and lending a helping hand would be a great way to help our community,  the one we know as America.
