The Gift of Music

Though we always need and appreciate all the monetary contributions given to Magdalene / Thistle Farms, there are other ways you can donate. Alison from Brentwood wanted to give the gift of music to the ladies of the program, by donating her upright piano. It was such a kind gesture, yet getting a piano moved properly is no easy feat. Luckily, our friends at Soundcheck offered to pick it up from Alison and move it into the main residential house in North Nashville.

We are so grateful to Alison, Ben, Case, Mikee, Gino, Patrick and William for making this possible!

Below are some photos from the move. Next on the list is finding a piano tuner to share his/her gift with us. Please contact carolyn@thistlefarms.org if you can help! Even without money, there's always a way to give.


The Soundcheck truck pulls up to the Lena house and the guys figure out the best way to get it out & in.


Looks like carrying it off the truck and up six stairs is the way to go!


Last move into the meeting room, which is used by all residents of the program.


Tah-dah! The piano is inside the house, with some of the very women that will use and appreciate this gift of music.
