Greenhouse Ministries has partnered with Stones River Mall in their efforts to help tornado victims rebuild their homes and lives.

Beginning Friday, April 24 Greenhouse Ministries will operate a furniture and household items warehouse at the old Goody’s location at the Mall.

The warehouse will be open Monday-Saturday to help tornado victims get the items they need, as well as give donors a place to take their donations.

Heather Rose, marketing manager for Stones River Mall, said, “Stones River Mall is committed to helping our community and we’re happy to donate space to Greenhouse Ministries to aid in their mission of providing relief to tornado victims and their families in this time of need.”

Greenhouse Ministries Executive Director, Cliff Sharp said, “We greatly appreciate the Mall’s generosity in letting us use a central location that makes it easy for people to drop off donations and tornado victims to pick up the items they need.”

Many volunteers and donations are needed for this project.

Volunteers are needed to staff the location Monday-Saturday and help tornado victims find the items they need.

Greenhouse Ministries will also accept donations of new or clean and gently used furniture, kitchen items (pots, pans, dishes, utensils, etc.) and linens.

The warehouse will not accept toys, clothes, or miscellaneous items.

To schedule a drop off of your donation, or to volunteer at the tornado warehouse, please contact Greenhouse Ministries (494-0499).
