Nashville Flooding-Ruby Fund Relief

On May 1 and 2, the city of Nashville experienced over 13 inches of rain within 3 hours with floodwaters inundating roads, highways and homes. The Cumberland River and its tributaries quickly flooded leaving thousands of residents in middle Tennessee with severe damage to their homes and possessions.  

The AOII Foundation has begun to receive Ruby Fund requests from area AOII sisters. Several other requests are expected in the upcoming days and weeks, as damage to the city of Nashville is projected to exceed $1.5 billion.  

We ask that you please consider making a gift of $25, $50, $100 or more to the Ruby Fund/Nashville Flooding. You may make a secure on-line donation on the donate page or by mailing your gift.  For information about the Ruby Fund, please contact Barbie Chadwick at bchadwick@alphaomicronpi.org.  Thank you for supporting your sisters in this time of need.
