We're packing goody bags for homeless kids at Oasis Center!
- March 4 · 6:00 PM
Since 1970, Oasis Center has provided assistance to at risk youth in Middle Tennessee, and with your help, the center can continue to hand out bags bags full of healthy, high protein, and filling foods to homeless youth. Please join Nashville Hiking Meetup to purchase and pack nourishing food that helps the kids keep a good energy level.
Meet Bob Jaffee at Costco on Charlotte in West Nashville, shop for goodies and bags, then head down to Oasis Center (1704 Charlotte Ave.) to pack the goody bags! We're asking you to donate your own funds to pay for the goodies. If you don't have a Costco membership, please bring cash to pay Bob Jaffee.
If you want to buy your own goodies ahead of time, feel free to meet us at the front door of the Oasis Center at 7:00 p.m. (see picture of O.C. front door below)
Call Robert Jaffee's cell number [masked] with questions or logistical support.
If you'd prefer to simply donate a few bucks to buy goodies, click here to do that through PayPal:
Items to shop for:
- Snack size pretzels or Sun Chips
- Juice box or fruit cup
- Granola bar
- Slim Jims
- Snack package of nuts (cashews, almonds, peanuts etc…)
- Peanut butter crackers
- Raisins
- Gallon Ziploc bags (to put the treats in!)
Let's once again prove how giving and community-minded Nashville Hiking Meetup is!
The Oasis Center provides at risk youth a connection to a caring adult, a safe & secure environment, and empowerment to make better choices.
