WATCH: Nonprofit helps storm victims replace lost instruments

Article excerpt

A nonprofit called ReString Appalachia is helping musicians rebuild their collections after devastating floods destroyed their instruments. The organization, founded to address a gap in disaster relief, has been working with storm victims in Appalachia to replace lost guitars, banjos, and other instruments that hold both practical and emotional value for the region's musicians. ABC News' Danny New spoke with the nonprofit's founder about how the group identifies musicians in need and sources replacement instruments to help them return to performing and teaching.
