2021 has been a busy year for The Hispanic Family Foundation (HFF). The Corona Virus has not stopped this nonprofit from reaching out to Nashville’s communities. Here is what you can expect from HFF this Spring and Summer:
- Vaccinations – April 9th & 30th
The Hispanic Family Foundation has partnered with Metro Public Health Department to help vaccinate the South Nashville community. The Metro Public Health Department will be setting up vaccination pods at Plaza Mariachi for anyone who wants a COVID-19 vaccine. Vaccinations will be taking place on April 9th from 3p.m. to 7p.m. and additionally, April 30th from 3p.m. – 7p.m.
- Food Drives – April 17th
Last year, HFF had a total of 8 food drives. By partnering with local Nonprofit One Generation Away, they were able to hand out over 200,000 lbs of food and feed thousands. HFF is aiming to feed even more families this year. April 17th is the next food drive and will take place at Plaza Mariachi from 9 a.m. to 11a.m.
- School Supply Drive – July 25th
Each year HFF hosts a back to school drive and provides children grades K-9 with a backpack full of the school supplies they need! July 25th, 2021 will be their 11th annual Back to School Drive.
- Community Baby Showers – March 27th & June 19th
