THIS is why we do it. "Ms. Elaine" (in her 80s) was stuck in her home with no power since Sunday - cold and scared. We got a call to check on her. Got her transportation to a church member's home where she's safe, warm & getting soft cuddles from "Bruce" who welcomed her in. #HopeAndHelp

Taking stock of a dangerous situation w/ lots of ice overnight. Biggest immediate issues are down trees taking power lines down with them and blocking roadways.
Call 615-234-0000 to report power outages, 311 or @hubnashville.bsky.social for non-emergencies, and 911 for life-threatening emergencies.

When we know severe weather is coming, we go to work, making sure everyone is ready, safe, and has everything they need until the storm passes. For many, we're their only help in preparing for severe weather. We don't take this responsibility lightly! #HopeAndHelp
