Disaster Relief Efforts

In May 2014, our Golden Circle went to both organizations to volunteer.  It was a rewarding activity for all, especially since their efforts were directly benefiting recent tornado victims of north Mississippi.

Churches of Christ Disaster Relief

Based out of Nashville, TN, "The Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort immediately responds to any major disaster in the continental United States by sending truckloads of emergency food, water, cleaning, and other supplies to disaster victims through a local Church of Christ working with us in the area of the disaster. Only fifteen employees are paid in the entire organization. Unpaid volunteers are the secret to the success of their organization."

Healing Hands International

Based out of Nashville, TN, "Since their beginning in 1991, Healing Hands International has delivered more than $100 million in aid to more than 75 countries around the world. They continue to send medical supplies and aid, but also drill water wells and train community leaders in Food Sustainability. They are rebuilding an orphanage in Haiti, training African women in business skills and growing techniques, delivering thousands of Christmas presents each year, and continuing Disaster Recovery efforts in Haiti and Japan.
