Between May 1st and May 2nd, 2010, more than 13 inches of rain fell, causing record breaking flash flooding in Tennessee. Though some of the hardest-hit areas were in or around Nashville, the flooding was widespread across the state. A total of 45 Tennessee counties have qualified for federal disaster relief.  Regular homeowners’ and renters’ insurance does not cover flood damage, and the vast majority of flooded homeowners did not have flood insurance because their houses were located outside of a flood plain. Much of the cleanup, debris removal and gutting has been completed, although some of this work still remains.  Home repairs are in progress.

To assist those in need, LDR-NJ will be gathering the following items for delivery to Tennessee.  Volunteers from Trinity Lutheran Church, Lansdale will be delivering the items in early August.  Gift cards to Home Depot, Lowes and Wal-Mart are the preferred type of contribution, however, the following items are also needed and can be donated as well:
