Friday morning, our Relief Center director, Amanda Delp, spoke to the regional long-term recovery working group focusing on rebuilding and recovery in Northeast Tennessee.
Amanda spoke about the work the Disaster Relief Center has been doing and gave some important updates:
- Volunteers have accumulated more than 30,000 hours of volunteerism at the Bristol Motor Speedway.
- The Disaster Relief Hotline has answered more than 3,200 calls for assistance, resources, and information.
- The Center has received shipments from all 48 contiguous states in the Nation.
- The amount of donations that have been received then redistributed have filled and emptied the warehouse space three times.
“We are committed to supporting the needs of our region, and getting survivors the supplies they need to begin restoring their way of life.”
