FLORENCE, Ala. - As flood victims in many parts of Nashville are still reeling from recent flooding, students at the University of North Alabama are taking action to collect bottles and gallon jugs of water to send their way.

"There are a couple of us on campus who have gotten various locations around the Shoals area to be locations for water donations for Nashville victims," said Bethany Oliver, a senior from Muscle Shoals. The donations will be delivered to and distributed by Hands on Nashville. For more information on Hands on Nashville, visit www.hon.org.
