Our Mission

For almost two decades, our leaders have been on the ground working with refugee and immigrant communities in Nashville and beyond. We’ve helped families from Sudan to Iraq, Afghanistan to Myanmar, and Latin America. We connect immediate needs such as households, food support, transportation, documentation, and community involvement.

The mission of Connecting Kindness is “doing life” with refugees and immigrants in Nashville. By offering a safe and welcoming environment, we build relationships. In building relationships, we can identify the community's current needs. Above all, we value the dignity and worth of each person we serve.

We want to share the joy of why we exist with our volunteers, partner organizations, and those we help. We’re all after durable solutions.
