With the holidays just around the corner, people will need warm meals to eat on Thanksgiving, but everyone won’t have access to a hot meal. To help meet that need, NES employees gathered to donate nearly 3,500 food items to Second Harvest Food Bank for families and individuals in need. Employees enjoyed music and fellowshipped while sharing what they are thankful for.
Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee makes sure everyone in the community has equitable access to food and resources. Since its inception in 1978, the organization has welcomed neighbors with radical hospitality, empowering them to live free from the daily burden of food insecurity. The organization prioritizes innovation and remains committed to sustainability, ensuring no one goes hungry and no food is wasted.
