Joshua's Place: Nashville Nights Gala Recap

 At Shine Orthodontics, giving back to the community is more than just something we do—it’s who we are. For over a decade, we’ve been dedicated to supporting meaningful causes and creating opportunities for local families to thrive. Whether it’s through scholarships, brighter smiles, or lending a helping hand, we’re passionate about making a real impact. 

Recently, we had the honor of being part of an unforgettable evening filled with generosity, excitement, and incredible milestones. Joshua’s Place Nashville Nights brought together an amazing community spirit, and we couldn’t be prouder to have played a role in its success. 

In this blog, we’ll share the highlights, celebrate the impact we created together, and how you can get involved.  

The Significance of Joshua’s Place 

At its heart, Joshua’s Place exists to break cycles of instability and create opportunities for families to thrive. Their approach extends well beyond material assistance, prioritizing meaningful relationships and innovative programs designed to address the deeper challenges that perpetuate poverty. 

This year’s Nashville Nights Gala was a remarkable evening of community and generosity that achieved incredible milestones. Together, we raised over $123,000, including a thrilling $40,000 in just 15 minutes! Shine Orthodontics was honored to be part of this effort, contributing through the auction of five sets of braces, which not only added to the total but also gave five local families the chance to access life-changing orthodontic care. 

The funds raised will directly support a variety of services, including Whiz Kids, Serve Saturday, CareClosets, Food Cooperative, and Trauma Informed Care. ensuring families in need receive both essential resources and opportunities for growth. Witnessing the community’s collective passion and support reminded us of the power of coming together for a shared purpose. 

For over a decade, we’ve partnered with Joshua’s Place, and every year, we’re reminded why their mission is so vital. The 2024 Nashville Nights Gala stood as a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when a community unites to create meaningful change. 

Thank you to everyone who played a role in making this night unforgettable. Your support truly embodies what it means to LIVE. LIFE. SHINING.
