CNM Salute to Excellence















BrightStone was honored to be part of last night's Salute to Excellence - the Oscars of the Nashville nonprofit world, put on by the Center for Nonprofit Management. We were up for the Marvin Runyon Leadership Award...we didn't win, but we got lots of exposure, a cash award for being a nominee, and an opportunity to be part of the special night.

Happy (belated) birthday to Jenny, whose birthday was on the 18th, and to Cathy, whose birthday was the 17th.

HCA Agency Day

HCA hosted its annual Agency Day on August 24th to encourage philanthropy and give area nonprofits a little extra exposure and an opportunity to gain support. HCA employees got to give "coins" to the agencies they liked the best....BrightStone's coin bowl was full to the brim! Thanks to those who contributed their coins, and thanks to HCA for inviting us to Agency Day!
