Best Buddies in Tennessee

340 Seven Springs Way

Suite 750

Brentwood, TN 37027

Hello- 

We want you to be a part of one of the area’s most anticipated events, hundreds of guests will fill the stunning JW Marriott Nashville for a one-of-a-kind celebration. Attendees will enjoy elegant food, drinks, robust silent & live auctions, and live music from 8 South Band all while supporting the mission of Best Buddies and making Tennessee a more inclusive place. 

Best Buddies, a non-profit organization that works tirelessly to confront the social isolation experienced by individuals with intellectual disabilities.  Because it’s often very difficult for them to make friends on their own, they face a lifetime of loneliness and seclusion.   In addition to the other programs we offer, Best Buddies bridges that social gap by matching them in a meaningful one-to-one friendship with a peer volunteer to form a “Buddy Pair”.   

This is where you come in. We would love for you to be a part of the auction. On October 28, at The JW Marriott Nashville, we’re holding our biggest annual fundraiser, the Best Buddies Gala. The evening features an extensive silent auction for which our event has now become known.  We would truly appreciate if you could donate an auction item to represent your business if you could, that would be awesome.  I imagine that you receive numerous requests for donations, so I’m extremely grateful for your consideration and support.  Your company name will be listed on our auction site. 

The dollars raised are put to work through the addition of new Best Buddies chapters in our local schools and colleges as well as our jobs and leadership programs in Tennessee.  This is an enormous gift to children, teens and adults with intellectual disabilities, their families, and the community as a whole.  Best Buddies’ programs now impact over 23,000 people in Tennessee -- this movement could not happen without the support from people like you and me.  So please know that when you give, it makes a huge difference.  

Thank you in advance for your time and generosity.

In friendship,
