In this season in which we're admonished to give, there are those in our midst who make serving an integral part of their life. In our first hour we'll talk with local Nashvillian Connally Penley about her involvement in Ten Thousand Villages, Magdalene and the Tennessee Scenic Rivers Association. Connally is a living example of our show's title and mission. Join us as we talk with her about the above organizations and her secrets to serving.

At the top of the second hour we talk with Ellie Morse, founder and president of the new Schools for Schools program in Dickson near Nashville, TN. (http://s4s.invisiblechildren.com/school/dickson-county-high-school ) Schools for schools is a unique program through Invisible Children, Inc that empowers the youth of America to raise funds for partner schools in Northern Uganda that have been affected by the 20 year war there. At present, Ellie's school is 7th out of 88 American High Schools in raising funds for Lacor Secondary School in Uganda. See the students, their shining faces, for whom she's raising money and more at the site above.
