Community Feature: Loaves and Fishes

The holidays are here and it's so important to give back to our community.

Special thanks to our very own Stephanie Stevenson for giving us a behind the scenes tour of this fabulous organization!

Loaves And Fishes is one of our favorite non-profits here in Clarksville. Just last month, they provided over 7 tons of food to local families in need! That number doesn't even include the 4.5 tons they gave to other supportive organizations.

1. Support them directly by donating food! For more information, check out:: https://bit.ly/LaFJingleBellDrive

Loaves and Fishes is conducting their Annual Jingle Bell Food Drive and it's in full swing! They are collecting food items and cleaning supplies that can be used for distribution to the agencies in our surrounding area and counties who need our help! Groups or individuals can collect from now through the month of December. Your collected items can be delivered to our current location on 215 Foster Avenue across from First Presbyterian Church downtown. The holidays are all about giving, so give what you can to this worthy cause!

2. Buy a bag of popcorn. It's delicious and it helps support their mission! Here's the link:: https://bit.ly/theFishPopsCorn

Details: Popcorn is available in three flavors for $15.00 a bag. They will have butter, cheese and caramel to choose from. The funds raised will go to feed the hungry in our community.
