PLEASE READ ALL INFORMATION BELOW
for our 2018 Season of Giving Program!
Unlike in the past where you fill out a form online, you are required to sign up in person this year in order to participate in our Christmas gift giving program. The reason for this is so we can get to know you a little better and also so we can get to know some the needs you may have throughout the year, not just at Christmas. We will ask you all to answer a short questionnaire to understand if we can assist you in the following areas:
- Housing resources
- Graduating from high school/GED/College enrollment.
- Job placement and career counseling
- Spiritual community and support groups.
- Mental health and counseling
- Substance abuse help
- Financial counseling and budgeting
- Educational programing for children
- Access to basic necessities such as food and toilet
YOU MUST STOP IN BETWEEN THE DATES/TIMES LISTED BELOW IN ORDER TO SIGN UP OUR GIFT PROGRAM *We will not have any other options to sign up after the 17th of November.
Location:
Change Ministries (Please enter from the door on Vernon Winfrey)
1001 N. 5th Street

Date and Times:
Date: Wednesday, November 14
Time: 3:30 PM - 6:15 PM

*We do understand some individuals would prefer to only participate in a Christmas gift giving program and not answer a questionnaire/attend the sign up sessions to learn about other areas we can assist you beyond Christmas. There are many other organizations who help meet the needs of Nashville families during the holidays. If you do not feel Project NENA is a good fit for you this year, we would direct you to please check out the link for other resources ( click here for other Christmas gift giving resources ) around the Nashville Area to assist with gifts for your children this year.
Please let us know if you have any questions!
Merry Christmas!
