notes: Atlanta Flood Update: Wednesday, September 23 September 23, 2009 Been on the ground today in those areas most affected by the flood in Cherokee county. Local needs have been our first priority. I was able to give away some food and gift cards to families in need as well as evaluate the true situations of the calls we received. I’m happy to say that from all the resources gathered that the need for immediate assistance in Cherokee county is low. Those that I met that are in some need are making it with the help of neighbors and other support from friends and family, which is awesome. There are five families as of today that are still looking for shelter for an indefinite amount of time. If you are interested in meeting this need contact GTN immediately and we will go from there. Many of you are local and are looking to help and wanting to donate supplies. And since GTN is about connecting people like you to the community of need we are expanding our search for the need to downtown Atlanta. We are attempting right now to partner with a local city church that is organizing and mobilizing for flood victims (video below). So feel free to contact me for donations of all supplies: clothes, toiletries, food, etc. We will be gathering them and taking them to the church in the city. I also hope to give you more volunteer opportunities as I meet and evaluate the needs in the city. Needed items: - Canned foods - Toiletries of all kinds - Underwear, socks - Diapers - Wipes You may drop off donations at any of Grace to the Nations’ collection sites. Contact locations for drop off availability or hours of operation. If you have a large donation and would like to arrange for special pick-up, contact Grace to the Nations at 404.819.5520 Woodstock Area: Maxsell Real Estate: 3231 S.

We are not a disaster relief ministry (though perhaps we should start that ministry???), however we are doing what we can to assist and connect folks. Thanks for the overwhelming calls of support. Many of you have offered your time, services, and tools. Churches have offered space and resources as well. So thanks and God bless you. For the most part, locally, the government services have handled the immediate needs. From the calls we’ve received homes are still flooded and wet and the clean up is yet to begin or in the initial stages. Families are devastated at the loss of much of their material possessions and those calling GTN have little to no support structure (church, family, etc.). So be praying for these families. What is GTN currently doing? We are trying to focus on immediate needs of food, clothing, and shelter while the larger agencies (govt. and nonprofs) mobilize. We have already started the process of pointing people to other resources and we are trying to do this relationally and hold their hands and head up while dealing with larger nonprofits and the government, which can be very intimidating in and of itself. If you would like information about a specific family, perhaps you would like to come along beside them and personally encourage them and help them more intimately, please contact GTN. We will try to connect you. That’s it for now, I’ll try to update with more information as the needs come. Follow www.facebook.com/GracetotheNations or twitter @grace2nations for more updates.
