NOLENSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — This weekend you can buy artwork while helping those who are dealing with cancer.

Saturday is the annual Art from the Heart Silent Auction hosted by the non-profit Art Helps Cancer.

It will be from 6-8 p.m. at Mills Creek Brewery in Nolensville off of Johnson Industrial Blvd.

Jusband and wife, Elmer and Anna Hill founded Art Helps Cancer together. Anna was diagnosed with breast cancer soon after moving to Nolensville in 2013.

They founded their non-profit to pay it forward because they recieved an outpouring of help after Anna's diagnosis.

Art Helps Cancer has helped people dealing with a cancer diagnosis get meals and take care of their homes. Admission to the silent auction is free, all you have to do is buy the art!

Longtime breakfast tradition continues for friends who met through Big Brothers Big Sisters mentorship

This is a beautiful story of chosen family, proving a father figure doesn't have to have biology in common to make a difference in a child's life. The story of De'Andre and Alex will remind you that our relationships help determine the course of our lives. And that being supportive of someone - through a meal, a shared experience or even swim lessons can make all the difference.
