City Lights Help Oasis Center Make Christmas a Little Merrier for Struggling Nashvillians
Posted by Jack Silverman on Fri, Dec 2, 2011 at 8:16 AM
It's no secret that we are big fans of the Oasis Center, which offers a variety of different programs "to help young people overcome serious challenges that prevent them from transitioning into a healthy adulthood." In fact, we like it so much that we selected Oasis Center co-founders Hal Cato and Roger Dinwiddie as our 2009 Nashvillians of the Year.
The Oasis Center is currently running its "Adopt-a-Family" campaign to help put groceries, clothes and gifts on the tables of struggling Nashvillians this holiday season. There are a few ways that you can help:
• You can simply go to the Oasis Center's website and click the DONATE NOW link. In the "Comments" section, simply type "Adopt-a-Family" and make your donation;
• Write a check — or buy gift cards to Kroger, Walmart or Target — and mail or deliver them to:
Attn: Andrew Suitter/Adopt-a-Family
1704 Charlotte Ave Suite 200
Nashville, Tennessee 37203
• If you'd like to be matched with a family or individual at Oasis Center's residential program, and to shop for gifts for them, contact Andrew at (615) 327-4455 or asuitter@oasiscenter.org.
Donate! You'll be glad you did.
