Child Hunger Day and ADA Partner

I am happy to report that we have just partnered with American Diabetes Association on Child Hunger Day.  Kristina Wrenn, recording artist and ADA Nashville Ambassador, is working with us on the event and is bringing her amazing talent to the program.  The partnership with ADA shows the depth and power of Child Hunger Day.  There are 17 million children who suffer from hunger every single day in the United States and there are 250,000 children who suffer from diabetes.  One of the best ways to combat diabetes is with proper diet and nutrition.  This is why we felt so strong about partnering with ADA.  We want to help kids that are hungry and affected by diabetes all at the same time. We are blessed to have Kristina and ADA on board!

Had the privilege of having lunch with Randy Shaw, Sr. Financial Director for the Nashville Rescue Mission. I also got to visit with NRM President, Glenn Cranfield.  I was able to get the full tour of their amazing facility.  Nashville Rescue Mission and all of their team are doing great things to help the homeless and hungry of Nashville.
