To our many generous friends,

We have some exciting news to share as we approach 2023!
This year the Board of Friends of Tennessee School for the Blind reached the long-term goal of our organization to ­establish a legacy endowment that will serve the students of Tennessee School for the Blind well into the future.

We recently dissolved our 501(c)(3) organization in order to establish the Friends of Tennessee School for the Blind Legacy Fund at The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.

Through the support of generous community organizations, business leaders, corporate foundations, and generous ­individuals, Friends of TSB has been able to touch every student through supplements to sports, arts, music, academic, and life skills programs for 25 years!

The great news? The Legacy Fund will continue to provide yearly funding to TSB to support the needs of the ­students! Members of our current board will serve on an advisory committee to the fund. Our generous community can continue to support the students of TSB through donations to the endowment.

The address for sending donations is now:
The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee
P.O. Box 440225
Nashville, TN 37244

Please make checks to The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee and indicate that it is for the Friends of TSB Legacy Fund. If your gift is in honor or memory, you may include the address of the person to receive acknowledgment.
