Helping Communities Recover
It’s in times of need that we’re reminded of the full impact of a community that’s united.
Natural and man-made crises are becoming the new normal, unfortunately. In response, United Way helps communities prepare for and respond to disasters in real time. Our network is uniquely positioned to provide on-the-ground disaster response, including raising funds, mobilizing volunteers and engaging local partners to ensure community stability. United Way is also proud to partner with many organizations who are helping with immediate relief by providing resources like food, water and shelter. United Way of Greater Nashville continues to closely monitor conditions across it’s nine-county service area and support recovery efforts.

VOLUNTEER: Volunteers are critical in the aftermath of a disaster, however, do not self-deploy. Hands On collaborates with the Nashville Office of Emergency Management and the United Way of Greater Nashville to support preparedness and response efforts for a wide variety of natural and man-made disasters throughout Middle Tennessee. As volunteers are needed we’ll include links to the volunteer opportunities on this page. Learn more about disaster volunteerism here.
