Hello my children,

It is again that time of year to help the children who have nothing... On Sunday, December 9, 2012 I will be having the 29th Annual Tree and Toy Party at The Edge... With the toys going to Catholic Social Services (which is the last resort for Tennessee Department of Child and Family Services), The Columbus Home (which is the Emergency Shelter for Physically and Sexually abused Children) and families selected from the community...Festivities begin at 7pm with the usual line-up of great entertainment from the Poinsettia's and Jingle Bells... With your host Mama Harper... Along with massages by The Arbor Institute and amazing food... And lounge music by Jacob Tyler... All for FREE... Just bring an unwrapped toy, bike or whatever your heart desires for a child from infant to 16 years of age...

Last year was the best year ever and I hope with the help of all my children, family and friends to make this year even better...

P.S. If you are unable to attend gifts and/or checks may be sent to The Edge c/o Gene Nutter, 7211 Kingston Pike, Knoxville, TN 37919

Make checks payable to: Gene Nutter with note to Hope Center

With All My Love,
