What is the Soul of Tennessee Foundation
Meet Us
The Soul of Tennessee Foundation originated in 2023 from a profound commitment to supporting older adults who often experience isolation and loneliness. Our mission extends beyond individual well-being to fostering a supportive village environment where every member thrives. We deeply honor the elders who have shaped and guided us, dedicating ourselves to serving them and ensuring they remain integral parts of our community.
At The Soul of Tennessee Foundation, we believe in the power of community gatherings to promote health, wellness, and a sense of belonging. We organize curated events that celebrate arts, music, and promote health and wellness, creating opportunities for interaction and joy. These events not only encourage a healthy and active lifestyle but also provide education on holistic wellness practices and inspire a love for community.
As a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Tennessee, The Soul of Tennessee Foundation is committed to transparency and accountability in all our endeavors. Join us in building a supportive village where every member, young and old, can thrive and feel valued. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of our elders and enrich our community for generations to come. Together, we nurture a supportive village where everyone feels valued, healthy, connected, and empowered to live their best lives. Volunteers are the heart of our organization, contributing their time and talents to host curated events that foster a sense of belonging and promote active lifestyles.
