The Devastation is Heartbreaking...

This video has been circulating facebook via YouTube. The Cumberland River, which runs through downtown Nashville, crest at 51.86 feet, its highest level since 1937. Flood stage is 40 ft. The all-time record is 56.2 feet in 1927.

The following organization is one my family became familiar with in the months following Katrina.

I wanted to share the link with everyone in case you are looking for a way to help physically or financially. Being a Nashville-based disaster relief effort, I feel confident that funds donated through this source will go to helping those whose lives have been altered by the floods in and around middle Tennessee & southern Kentucky.
