It's hard to imagine that 1 out of 5 children suffer from hunger in Nashville. But make no mistake, child hunger is no fairy tale. It is a reality for over 4,000 school children right here in our community and it's time for us to change that number! That's why DOTTIE FRIST & FRIENDS created the IMAGINARY BANQUET. We could have done something familiar, traditional, common, normal, and expected...we could have secured a building, hired a caterer, designed table arrangements, rented lights, audio equipment, media and video gear, decorated the tables, set the room, hired a valet company, got a special speaker, singers, entertainment, sold tickets, acquired sponsorship, bought advertising, publicized the event, put together the perfect meal, timeline and amazing production that hopefully would appeal to the audience and get them all warm and fuzzy to donate to the cause BUT INSTEAD we decided to let you keep your three hours that you would never get back, spared you the rubber chicken dinner, the long presentation, the traffic you would fight, parking hassles, the babysitter, the time away from home and family, dry cleaning your tux and red dress, and scheduling conflicts! We decided to give it all back to you! We chose to save all of the money that it would take to put on an incredible event like this and just ask you to host a table that feeds 10 kids for an entire year and you are done! Mission accomplished! Finally, a hassle-free way to feed hungry children! Pretty cool, huh? There are only 100 tables for this year's event. Won't you sign up to make an impact for those in need?
