I skate at this park all the time (I go often enough to have a membership), and love it. I'm thrilled their cafe is becoming more established. They've recently really been focusing on this part of their business, and the seating area has pretty much quadrupled in the last month. They have a steady coffee menu (I had a nice Americano this morning) and also have some food items (appealing to both kids and adults, with chicken fingers, pizza, a Turkey pesto sandwich, grilled cheese, bagels w/ cream cheese, muffins, plus other snacks like breakfast bars, candy, chips, etc). They are constantly working to make the space welcoming for everyone, and literally building things left and right. I love how much work they put into it and all the staff here are stellar human beings!!

The Friendship House is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation which is governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees.

Super kind, they come right to the car, help unload everything, and never once looked concerned by the mountain of unnecessary purchases I was donating. Feels good knowing all this stuff won't go to waste instead of haunting me in storage bins forever.

And clothing, including shoes, were sold by the pound. Interesting experience. I actually feel that many of these customers plan to resell what they were buying here. Good for creating commerce and entrepreneurism. 3 registers, but only one was open. Huge line by the backroom "doors," I think everyone is waiting for the next "shipment" to get first dibs on the products. Good to know that most, if not all, our donations are used. Atmosphere - Huge facility, both indoors and their parking lot. See pictures. Service - Self service. Price - See pictures of menu. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success for the last 120+ years. We donate often.

First of all it was super easy to sign up, just search online and fill out your info, pick a day and find a volunteer opportunity! It's that simple! Today we did our second time volunteering with the meal prep group and it was just as fun and fulfilling as the first time! Everyone who takes their time to run The Nashville Food Project are so nice and appreciative. They need so much help y'all! We cut veggies and fruit, prep meals, do some light cleaning, and enjoy the company and stories of others that are volunteering. It's amazing to give back to our community and be an active part in making it a better place! There are so many opportunities to volunteer with them and so many tasks to choose from. It's been eye opening to learn about our community and the food security issues many face in our own neighborhoods. Food insecurity is such a problem in our country faced by so many, young, old, families, and even those who work experience food insecurity. The Nashville Food Project is doing their best to make sure that those in our community have the food they need while educating those who volunteer. So if your looking for a great way to give back to your community and a wonderful way to fill some available time in your day then I highly recommend you sign up or stop by and see what it's all about!!

As middle Tennessee's only volunteer center, HON serves as the volunteer staffing organization for so many charities who need the help. Everyone knows that charities can't run without (1) money and (2) volunteers. Every September, thousands of HON volunteers descend on Metro Nashville Schools to pour hundreds of thousands of dollar's worth of time into doing much needed maintenance to the system facilities. In the horrific flood of 2010, HON stepped up as the hero organization, providing relief in almost every facet. Full disclosure, I am on the board. I serve on the board because I believe it in so much. HON is financially sound and run like a well-oiled machine by its staff and executive team. If you're a volunteer, just log in to the website and enter the system. You'll be amazed by the opportunities, training and diversity of events. Go ahead...you might just change your life while changing someone else's!

Everything was organized into tubs, labeled, and very easily accessible. I loved their selection of vintage appliqués! They also have grab bag style assortment of things for a variety of crafts (junk journaling, scrapbooking, key chain kits). My kids loved looking around! Definitely worth a stop in while in the area!
