Nashville CARES 22nd annual 'Dining Out For Life' event kicks off Wednesday

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — In the heart of the greater Nashville area, a movement is stirring that combines the simple joy of dining with the profound impact of philanthropy.

Nashville CARES will celebrate the 22nd anniversary of its annual Dining Out For Life event.

On Wednesday, March 8, restaurants will be donating 30% to 100% of sales (from food only or food and alcohol) from breakfast, lunch and/or dinner services to Nashville CARES.

That money will go towards the fight against the HIV Epidemic in Middle Tennessee.

A list of participating restaurants can be found here.

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.
