Giving Back Year Round

slider02


If you want to pay it forward and live in Southeast Tennessee consider donating and/or volunteering at The Caring Place. On their website their philosophy is summed up with on sentence-a scripture that reads: "Let all you do be done in love."- 1 Corinthians 16:14. It's a place that helps those in need by providing clothing and also food from volunteer maintained gardens. There are social workers on site to evaluate social needs such as improved living conditions and immediate health concerns.

This facility also has a school sack lunch program that provides nutritious lunches to those children that would otherwise go without. This ensures more focus and concentration throughout the day and in turn, better learning for all kids!

The Caring Place takes donations of money (and accept paypal), clothing and/or time. If you want to learn more about this amazing place of hope read more at http://thecaringplaceonline.org/.

Donations are tax deductible and information is available through the site and in person at the location.

If you want to do something that matters and help others contact The Caring Place at (423) 472-4414

Thanksgiving in Action: Be Grateful


For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it is received with gratitude; for it is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. (1 Timothy 4:4-5 and Colossians 3:15)

Be thankful for EVERYTHING you'd rather not be without. Let us as Americans never lose sight of the fact that most of our 'problems' are 1st world inconveniences in comparison to the struggles and suffering of others. Be grateful for what and who you have in your life and show it by letting loved ones know they're loved and giving to others. Pay it forward!
