We are so excited to share this with you!
During the school year, kids who might not have enough to eat over the weekend discreetly receive a bag of food to help replace the breakfasts and lunches they won’t be getting at school. This is called the Backpack Program, and every school in Wilson County is sponsored by one of our many caring and generous churches. We wanted to bridge the gap for these kids over the summer, so we’ll be starting our first Summer Food Program next month!! We’ll have three drop off sites in our service area each week of summer break, making it easier to get days’ worth of non-perishable breakfasts, lunches, and snacks in the hands of our community’s kids.
Honk and wave if you drive by and see the Help Center van out and about this summer!

The Basement Marketplace is holding their spring Artisans & Antiques Market on Saturday, May 11!
As always, there will be amazing vendors there, as well as some food trucks sure to make your mouth water!
The admission to the market is $1.00 or a canned food item donation to the Mt. Juliet Help Center,
and the proceeds from the silent auction will benefit the Help Center, as well!
Remember that May 11 is the day before Mother's Day (*hint* *hint*)! We'll see you there!

It's that time, again...
The 2019 NALC Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is May 11!
Place a bag with healthy, non-perishable food by your mailbox early in the morning on May 11, and your letter carrier (or one of our volunteers in marked vehicles) will pick it up and deliver it to the Help Center.
It can't get much easier than that!

Hunger Action Month 2018 was a big success!
There was an almost 12% increase in donations raised, and a 227% increase in food donated for the Hunger Action Month campaign in September. We'd like to give a big shout out to all of the restaurants and businesses who supported the campaign, and to everyone who chose to give back to the community by patronizing the participating establishments. It takes all of us working together to meet the needs of struggling families in west Wilson County,
and we appreciate your commitment to the community!
