THE MISSION AND PURPOSE OF DAVIS HOUSE
The mission and purpose of Davis House is to combat child abuse by coordinating services to children and families in crisis and providing community education focused on prevention and early intervention. We were established as a 501c3 not for profit organization in 1999 and serve Williamson, Hickman, Lewis and Perry counties in Tennessee. All of our services are provided at no cost to the children and families we serve.
Two notes. That’s all it takes to recognize the voice of Michael McDonald. Distinctive and soulful, it is one of the most yearningly emotive instruments of our times.
To this add formidable songwriting and keyboard skills, and you have an artist who has been a singular musical presence for four decades. From ‘70s-era Doobie Brothers classics such as “What A Fool Believes” and solo hits like “I Keep Forgettin’” through two highly-acclaimed Motown albums, genre-busting guest spots and innovative concept shows, the five-time Grammy Award winning McDonald is both timeless and ever-evolving.
Please visit The Franklin Theatre for more information and to purchase tickets to this event.
Alpha Delta Kappa, an international honorary organization of women educators dedicated to educational excellence, altruism and world understanding, will hold a fundraiser benefiting children of Williamson County from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 5, at the historic Presbyterian Church in downtown Franklin.
The organization will be having a Gingerbread House decorating party for families during the event. There will be hot chocolate and cookies, pictures with Santa, and lots of candy to decorate the gingerbread houses.
The money raised will go to charities St. Jude, Alzheimer’s Association and GraceWorks, and for local education scholarships.
