"Right now, we are almost completely out of bottled water.
We need the community’s help in gearing up for what I anticipate to be a difficult summer for our city’s homeless community," Rev.
GlennCranfield, president and CEO of the Nashville Rescue Mission said.
"When temperatures reach 92 degrees and above, the Mission sends out our ‘Hot Patrol,’" explained Rev.
Cranfield.
The Nashville Rescue Mission serves over 800 people each day.
It doesn’t include those who choose to stay on the street.
Even a small act of kindness—like handing a cold bottle of water to someone on the street—might be the very thing that convinces them to seek shelter and could potentially save their life,” he said.
The Mission’s donation center is located at 616 Seventh Avenue South.
It’s open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
