The flood damage to the Nashville, Tenn. area has been estimated at $1.5 billion and the government has declared 42 Tennessee counties as major disaster areas.

Teams from the charity aid organization, Operation Blessing International, have been in The Volunteer State helping with clean-up and recovery efforts.

Over the weekend, several OBI team members were in Gallatin. They were focused on helping the elderly and those without insurance. Team members removed personal belongings, carpet, and sheet-rock from homes, so they can dry out.

Last week, Operation Blessing also provided 40,000 pounds of food for families in the Nashville area.
