Donate to help Jonathan & Emily








From a friend of the Wade's:

Dear friends-

This is not an easy e-mail to write but the tears and trauma of last weeks flood are enough to compel me to action.

I'm not sure how many of you are aware of this but during the Nashville flood Emily and Jonathan Wade's home in Bellevue was totally destroyed. Their place was up for sale all of the last year they were here but they were unable to sell it before their move to Raleigh, NC so they found renters to attempt to cover the mortgage. (The students who rented it were able to get out safely..but will not be renting it back).
Luckily the demolition and basic tear down is complete, (which is another longer, yuckier story!). On Thursday they found out that as "landlords" now Emily and Jonathan are unable to get any FEMA assistance. They have tried several options but are stuck with mortgage payments in Nashville, rent in Raleigh as well as repair costs to try to get the place in livable condition again.
They now have to start rebuilding.

So here's where we come in as friends...I'm hoping if we can spread the word among Emily and Jon's fans we'll be able to raise enough money to help them at least with the mortgage until they can get the place repaired (totally rebuilt).

At a time like this when there are so many needs I know this is a difficult ask but if there is any financial help you can give
- no matter how small- please do so.

Three ways you can help:
1. Donate at any Bank of America. (I've opened an account there call me (615) 519-0969 for account information if you would like to donate at any branch--I don't want the account# out in the web universe)
