Every night in Nashville, thousands experience homelessness and lack many of the basic needs like clothing, food, water and housing.

We have a chance to change that and make a huge difference. You'll never know the full impact your gift on this night will have in someone's life today, but also for generations to come.

This fundraiser is about coming together as a community to offer love and dignity, and invest in lasting change for our neighbors in need.
