Impact of CFMT’s Belonging Fund.

Since the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee's Belonging Fund launched, our immigrant and refugee families in Middle Tennessee have found a safe place to access resources during a crisis, a dream shared by many organizations on the steering committee. TIRRC alone has given out $50,000 to 50 families impacted in 2026. From a recipient:  "Thank you so much, I'm so grateful! You've saved my family—I'll pray for you for the rest of my life!"
