NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Food will go to waste at CMA Fest because any leftover food from backstage and catered events happening over the weekend will be donated to organizations that feed people facing homelessness and food insecurity as part of the Musically Fed program.

Meals will be delivered to organizations like Room in the Inn, Matthew 25, Safe Haven, and Operation Stand Down.

The meals include produce, fruit, fried goods, and already prepared meals. Unused food supplies will also be donated.

Musically Fed was founded in 2016 and has partnered with other major events such as the Grammy Awards and the Hollywood Bowl.

Hermitage clinic for disabled patients set to close, cites loss of funding

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.
