MCMINN COUNTY, Tenn. (WDEF) — A nonprofit in Athens, Tennessee has faced a major loss, and the ministry is now raising funds through a GoFundMe.

The bus caught fire and was destroyed on March 1.
This fundraiser is meant to help the ministry purchase another bus to continue providing showers to those in need.
“Unfortunately, this bus and the staff are all that some people living on the streets have,” the fundraiser reads.
