Yesterday I had the opportunity to speak at a United Way campaign event at Zeledyne in West Nashville. They are the relatively new occupants of what used to be known as the Ford Glass plant. It was good to reconnect with the people who work there and tell them the importance of supporting United Way of Metropolitan Nashville, a major supporter of St. Luke's.
We talked about the Mobile Meals program at St. Luke's, which provides hot meals to about 100 seniors and disabled persons every week day. The program is a vital part of improving the nutrition of people in the neighborhood, but it also breaks isolation. When the volunteer driver stops by (and we can't thank our wonderful volunteers enough for what they do to make the program possible), he or she may be the only visitor that senior receives that day.
United Way, volunteers, and supporters like you form a partnership that makes it possible for St. Luke's to offer programs like Mobile Meals.
