First and foremost, we hope you, your family, and loved ones safe and healthy. There is no doubt that Nashville’s tornado recovery, combined with the increasing impact of COVID-19, has drastically altered our sense of health and community. Our hearts go out to the countless individuals, businesses, and organizations that have been impacted by these tragedies.
The USN Evening Classes program exists solely to benefit USN’s K-12 need-based scholarship endowment, which benefits one in every five students. While there’s no question that USN Evening Classes are made a reality thanks to the generous financial support of the thousands of students who take classes each year, the time and talent of the hundreds of instructors and the Nashville business community makes USN Evening Classes the unique, one-of-a-kind learning opportunities that they are. They are not only instructors to us; they are our neighbors and close friends. We hope that you will keep this at the forefront of your mind as you continue to support local businesses.
Despite the hardships and heartache of recent weeks, the 2020 season of USN Evening Classes was a record-breaking success. A sincere thank you for your unwavering support throughout the season and for your understanding as we battled the onset of the pandemic. Like Nashville, we will come back stronger than ever and can’t wait to reconnect with you for the 2021 season.
