Nourishing Change
Nourishing Change is our monthly donation program through which we accept donations at our registers on behalf of a local organization or project. Since the program’s start in April 2012, we’ve raised over $659,000 for more than 100 non-profit organizations.
MaRCH 2023 Partner: sOUTH Knoxville elementary pto
In March, we will be collecting change to support elementary students and educators.
- Objective: To raise $7,000 to support the education of students from an economically disadvantaged community.
South Knoxville Elementary PTO works to enhance and support the elementary school experience for its students, teachers, and staff. The demographics of their student population make fundraising more challenging for them than for other larger or more advantaged schools. Funds raised will provide student educational experiences, basic classroom supplies, and facility upgrades.
