Alpha Omega Veterans Services

“Great place for giving back to the servicemen and women who served our country. The love and compassion of fellowship with the residents of AOV is always rewarding for the soul. This organization has helped many people (veterans) live a somewhat normal life, which is truly a blessing!” –Writer

New Ballet Ensemble & School

“I have supported this organization since its earliest days, and it has grown leaps and bounds since then! Both of my children attend NBE classes, and we have loved being a part of the NBE community. I’m so proud of all of our Memphis graduates who have gone on to become professional dancers and successful in their careers (even if they follow a different path from dance — one of my son’s former ballet teachers is a pre-med student now!). Their annual Nut Remix shows are a highlight of the holiday season and a welcoming, diverse alternative (or supplement) to the traditional Nutcracker experience.” –JoannSelvidge
