Make A Gift to Middle Tennessee Emergency Response Fund
In the early morning of March 3, 2020, The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee activated the Middle Tennessee Emergency Response Fund in response to the devastating tornadoes that ripped through several of Nashville’s most iconic neighborhoods.
Gifts to the Fund have thus far helped area organizations provide counseling and mental health support; direct financial assistance; insurance mediation; food and nutrition; home furnishings; home repairs and rebuilds; household goods and clothing; legal assistance; mortgage, rent, and utility payments; temporary and permanent housing; and primary healthcare services.
The road to recovery is long, and each tornado survivor’s journey is different. Your gift ensures our collaborative efforts continue to restore lives. Thank you.
