Nashville (Advocating for Wellness, Accessibility, and Knowledge of injustice facing the Elderly), a nonprofit that advocates for senior members of the community, and Legacy South, a fast growing, full-service real estate development company based in Nashville, form a strategic partnership to create more affordable housing for seniors in Nashville. The partnership was developed in response to the recent displacement of senior residents from North Park Village Senior Community in Madison, TN. To mark this new collaboration, the two organizations will host an event called “North Park on the Rise Community Fellowship Event” that provides an opportunity to reunite former North Park residents and rebuilds the community.
Time of Event: 3-6pm

The event is set for Saturday, June 11th from 3-6pm at City Road Chapel UMC and will feature games, entertainment, face painting, balloon animals, food trucks, prizes and lots of family fun. The event is free to the public and the goal is to enhance the wellbeing of senior communities through fellowship, fun, and social engagement.
We all understand that change is inevitable, but the process of how we implement change is what makes all the difference. We must get in the community to get to know the community to better understand the community’s needs. This event will provide the opportunity to do just that.
You don’t want to miss it! There will be lots of food, games, and prizes for the entire family to enjoy.
