Good folks like you always ask, “How can I help?” There are several ways you can get involved with the work at Disaster Relief.
Pray for our ministry
We covet your daily prayers as we seek to help as many hurting people as possible in the name of Jesus.
Volunteer at our warehouse
We are in constant need of volunteers to pack boxes, load trucks, and organize supplies at our warehouse at 410 Allied Drive in Nashville. We have many groups scheduling to come work a few hours, a day, or several days. We ask that you call to schedule a date with us, so that we can prepare for your visit, and to be sure another large group is not already scheduled that day.
When we are in need of food boxes to send on our shipments, we have volunteers living in the Nashville area willing to come work from 10am to 1pm, with only a several day notice. We have an automated system that calls individuals and congregations to notify them when we need volunteers to load food boxes. 150-250 people will come in to work side-by-side on a food box packing assembly line. 1,500 food boxes will be packed in less than 2 hours, then we feed the volunteers lunch, and they’re free to go. If your available some mornings, and would like to help pack food boxes, call our office and ask to have your name and phone number added to our call list.
So please schedule a time to come help whether you’re by yourself, with your family, or with a group. If you’d like to help on food box packing days, we will add you to our call list. While you are here, we’d be happy to give you a tour of our 87,860 sq ft facility, just tell us you’d like to see our facility. We are very proud of how the Lord has blessed our growth over the years! We look forward to hearing from you.
What we don’t accept
Many people call us about bringing items that have been collected. It’s not that we are ungrateful, but in order to send the same thing out on every shipment we do not accept donations of food, personal care items, cleaning supplies, used clothing, or water, we buy it instead so we know exactly what we have, how much we have, and when we need to order more.
We can purchase these items for much less than you can buy them even if you can buy them on sale, because we buy from brokers and manufacturers in high quantity, and some by the trailer load.
Thank you for your support!
