First Freedom & TennCommUNITY Volunteer with LSSD
First Freedom, as a member of TennCommUNITY, volunteered with the Lebanon Special School District (LSSD)’s weekend backpack program. Volunteers helped shop for food that would be given to children participating in this program, ensuring accessible meals when school is not in session.
The bank has been a participant of TennCommUNITY since its inception in 2020, when it was created to stimulate local spending and support small businesses in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the years, the program has evolved to move beyond just post-pandemic support to an ongoing effort to keep local dollars in our community. First Freedom is one of several local banks that collaborate to fund, promote, and support the program in partnership with the three Wilson County Chambers of Commerce.
Pictured below alongside other volunteers and TennCommUNITY members are Tatum Ortlepp, Retail Sales Manager, and Chrissy Wright, Lebanon FSR Manager and Training Coordinator.
