Project IMPACT

For this years’ service project, I have chosen to tackle the problem of food insecurity. In Tennessee around 810,000 people are facing hunger or food insecurity and of them 234,000 are children. This issue is especially prominent in children because if they’re not provided proper nutrients, it directly affects their brain development. 


Some of the main causes of food insecurity include unemployment, chronic health conditions, systemic racism, and lack of affordable housing. We plan to tackle this problem through a statewide food drive, where will donate to little pantries and local food banks. 


Another alternative to this could be volunteering your hours at local soup kitchens, food banks, or even making little blessing bags. Food insecurity has always been a problem, but due to covid, loss of jobs, and high prices due to inflation it has made it hard for families to

keep up. When people, especially children are faced with food insecurity it directly impacts, obviously their physical health, but also their mental health. There will also be a competition held between each area, and the area that raises the most will receive $150 credit to help pay for convention that can be distributed as the winning council

chooses. 


If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to email me

Thank you for your time!

St. Jude Children's Hospital

TASC is excited once again to partner with St. Jude Children's Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee.  St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment. Consistent with the vision of our founder Danny Thomas, no child is denied treatment based on race, religion or a family's ability to pay. Unlike any other hospital, the majority of our funding comes from individual contributions. And thanks to generous donors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude.


TASC...thank you for helping St. Jude Children's Hospital this year!  Please take the time and submit a google doc report form for each project this year that your council participates in or initiates.  If your council would like to work towards the TASC Council Platinum Award at the end of the school year, then you must submit at least one project dedicated towards St. Jude.
