With cold weather approaching, Nashville-based Room In The Inn and Founder, Charles Strobel, celebrate the 30th winter season of providing the homeless shelter and meals throughout Middle Tennessee. With the aid of more than 190 congregations and 6,500 volunteers, over 1,000 unhoused persons will have a place to stay through the program this season. As many continue to show support, the 16th Annual Nashville Unlimited Christmas Concert will take place tonight (12/15) featuring Emmylou Harris, Three Ring Circle and other surprise guests at Christ Church Cathedral, as all proceeds directly support Room In The Inn. For more information on the show or to make contributions visit RoomInTheInn.org.

2012 Boulevard Bolt Celebrates 19th Anniversary Helping Nashville’s Homeless
The 2012 Boulevard Bolt is celebrating its 19th anniversary of raising funds to benefit the homeless with a 5-mile run/walk on Thanksgiving Day, November 22, 2012 at 8:00 a.m. The course runs along Belle Meade Boulevard, with the start and finish taking place at St. George’s Episcopal Church (4715 Harding Rd., Nashville 37205).
In 2011, approximately 8,500 adults and children registered for the annual fundraiser and since the Boulevard Bolt began its charity event in 1994, more than $2 million has been distributed among dozens of local agencies that serve the homeless.
