NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Great news for small businesses across the city of Nashville! Comcast is awarding grant packages to 100 small businesses in the area.
Local businesses are able to apply for these grants through Comcast's RISE program which include things like a technology makeover, creative production & media, education resources, coaching sessions and a $5,000 monetary grant.

I'm so thankful Robb Coles highlighted the Kamer Davis clinic in Hermitage and the hardship that may force its closure. The clinic provides care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities and there is no other place like it nearby. You can tell the staff is so passionate about the care they provide. I hope by shining the light on this, the right person can step in and make a difference.
