We want to thank the numerous community supporters who donated food, clothing, toys, money and more to ensure our TNT and KIDS Matter youth and families had a great Christmas.

Our KIDS Matter after-school reading program celebrated Christmas by having cookies and milk with Santa as he read a Christmas story to them. They enjoyed a super snack and opening presents.

Teens Need Training celebrated Christmas by shopping for winter school clothes. During Christmas break, the teens had a celebration, complete with lunch, gift bags and afternoon games. After Christmas, the teens enjoyed the City of Cookeville Christmas in the Park festivities.

We are excited to begin a new year! Applications are being accepted for KIDS Matter and Teens Need Training afterschool programs. You must apply, be enrolled and follow program guidelines to participate in either program. Contact Shaquawana at (931) 526-9793, ext. 213, today for details!

TNT and KIDS Matter will not meet if school is closed for bad weather or if bad weather is approaching. If unsure, please call Shaquawana at (931) 526-9793, ext. 213.
