  • Volunteers will be required to review and sign a waiver prior to participation and will be expected to model appropriate COVID-19 safety measures.      
  • This will be a very physical volunteer project, and will involve entering buildings that could potentially have mold and mildew

Please note: The address you receive in your confirmation email will show as TBD with a google maps URL. DO NOT GO TO THIS ADDRESS! Homes are being identified and assessed on a rolling basis, and addresses for project will be given in follow-up communications. 
 
Mold may be present after flooding. Hands On Nashville will provide appropriate masks to its partners in the field to share with volunteers. Volunteers who own fitted respirators are encouraged to bring them. Volunteers should wear shoes with reinforced soles, long sleeves and long pants. It is a good practice to wash clothing immediately after volunteering for these projects. People with asthma, those who are allergic to mold, those who have had surgery within the past 8 weeks, immune compromised people, and people with chronic lung disease or other pulmonary conditions should not volunteer for this project. 
  
Inspiritus - Disaster Relief is a non-profit organization out of Atlanta aimed at guiding individuals and families on a path from surviving to thriving. To empower those whose lives have been disrupted and to help them grow into vibrant contributors to their community.  Inspiritus has partnered with Hands On Nashville to assist survivors of the recent floods.
