Preds annual holiday charity party a success
Every year, the Preds Foundation hosts a holiday party for a local Nashville charity. This year, we celebrated the holiday season with Bethlehem Centers of Nashville. Preds players Dante Fabbro, Ryan Johansen and Colton Sissons sponsored the party, and Preds staff purchased presents for 68 kids. 
We had a fangtastic night filled with good food, games and a visit by Santa GNASH! It was a Hockey Holidays indeed! We thank Fabbro, Johansen and Sissons for their annual support of this party.

Cousins and Duchene adopt families for the holidays

This year, Nick Cousins and Matt Duchene each adopted a family from Nashville Inner City Ministry for the holidays. Both families received gifts and the family Duchene adopted received a new stove! This is the second year that Cousins has adopted a family from Nashville Inner City Ministry. We are grateful to have a team that cares so much about the Middle Tennessee community and gives back to the place we call home!

Preds and Nashville Fire Department sponsor pet adoptions

Last month, the Preds Foundation, the Nashville Fire Department and the Blaze Mentoring program sponsored adoptions at Metro Animal Care and Control! Adoption fees were waived, and 18 furry friends found their fur-ever homes! MACC even had a couple of animals named after the Preds, including dogs named Zamboni and Ekky and cats named Jeannot and Granny! We are so happy for the animals that were adopted and are thankful for our partnership with the fire department!

Hearts of Gold spotlight

Our Preds staff love getting out into the community and volunteering! Each full-time staff member is encouraged to volunteer at least 40 hours of service throughout the course of each season with a company-wide goal of serving 8,000 hours per year! Last month, we assisted one of our 2021 grant recipients, the Urban League of Middle Tennessee in distributing turkeys for the holidays. We passed out 350 turkeys to local families at a drive-thru event at Ford Ice Center-Antioch! If your organization has volunteer opportunities, please reach out to Anna at amyers@nashvillepredators.com.
