Join Us For A Little Southern Fried Social Change

May 19, 2010 No Comments by Jessica Murray

We’re actively seeking volunteers and sponsors for this event.  It’s being held on Saturday, July 24th to Sunday, July 25th at CoLab Nashville. 

We’re limiting the number of volunteers to no more than 40, to ensure we stay on task and provide the non-profit the best work.  The event will benefit Reconciliation, a 25 year old Nashville non-profit who cateres to the children and families of those incarcerated.  Often times, people overlook the family members of prisoners because it’s taboo but their children are at higher risk of becoming offenders.  Reconciliation wants to end the cycle with counseling and resources provided to the children and parents, in hopes of avoiding another child ending up in a prison bed.  I urge you to help break the cycle and join the amazing volunteer team that is lining up to help push this little non-profit into the forefront and bring some awareness to this issue that impacts everyone.

Our first sponsor, Livecage, already stepped up with a $500 donation towards the event expenses.  Any remaining proceeds donated will be given to Reconciliation.
