  • Urgent Nonprofit Policy Priorities in Reforms to CARES Act
    Urgent Nonprofit Policy Priorities in Reforms to CARES Act July 13, 2020 Updated November 9, 2020 Urgent Nonprofit Policy Priorities in Reforms to CARES Act July 13, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Mitch McConnell Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Senate Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Kevin McCarthy The Honorable Chuck Schumer Minority Leader Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Senate Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Speaker Pelosi, Leader McConnell, Leader McCarthy, and Leader Schumer: The charitable nonprofit community appreciates that several key relief programs in the various COVID-19 relief laws enacted by Congress extend eligibility to some nonprofit organizations. These bipartisan efforts recognize both that the American people rely extensively on charitable nonprofits for important services and supports and that charitable nonprofits play a significant role in our nation’s economy as the third largest employer. These programs have been a lifeline for many nonprofits during this difficult time and it is clear that every dollar granted, donated, or earned has been leveraged immediately to address clear and present challenges. However, nonprofits – like the people we serve throughout the country – still face significant challenges. As we continue to provide relief and begin the process of reopening, these challenges will only grow. As you work on the next COVID-19 relief package this month, the charitable nonprofit sector urges you to address four specific issues to ensure we can continue to provide frontline services to those in need, and are able to help our communities recover.

  • Civil War Trail
    Crescent Bend During the Civil War, Crescent Bend was used by both Union and Confederate Armies as a command center and hospital. Thousands of soldiers encamped and fought skirmishes on its farmland. It is also noteworthy for this era for possibly being a safe house on the Underground Railroad. A hidden trapdoor beneath the main staircase led to a room where runaway slaves were sheltered. Drury Armstrong's Crescent Bend started with 600 acres of land on the north side of the Holston River (now called the Tennessee River). Within a few years he acquired another 300 acres on the south side. He owned several other tracts of land in and around Knoxville, upon one of which a famous Civil War battle, the Battle of Armstrong's Hill, would be fought. In addition to these land holdings, he also owned 50,000 acres of wooded and pastoral mountain land in Sevier and Blount Counties, Tennessee. He gave the name “Glen Alpine” to his land between the West Prong of the Little Pigeon River and the East Prong of the Little Tennessee River. This land today makes up about 10% of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. During the Civil War, the house was used by both Union and Confederate Armies as a command center and hospital. Thousands of soldiers encamped and fought skirmishes on Crescent Bend farmland. Originally the Union Army controlled Crescent Bend and built an earthen fortification around the house; began on the western side of the house, wrapped around the back of the house, and connected with Kingston Pike on the east.

  • The Evolution of Ywca's Work and Our Mission
    THE EVOLUTION OF YWCA’S WORK AND OUR MISSION Our Founding: It was 1855, in England, where two women’s groups came together, a prayer group and a social activist group, to seek housing for nurses returning from the Crimean War, and, to improve the lives of women caught up in the Industrial Revolution. Here YWCA was born. Soon, across the Atlantic, many of America’s young women were moving into our growing cities, their sights set on becoming self sufficient and on more fulfilling futures. As was the experience in England, what they found among the mills, bakeries and laundries providing jobs to young women were long working hours, poor and unsafe conditions, and few opportunities for healthy activity. Concurrently at this time in the U.S., a religious revival was being experienced. As the plight of the new corps of working women became apparent, and as happened in England, women serving the Lord saw a worthy application for their spirit and energies. It was in this climate that the Prayer Union Circle and Ladies’ Christian Association were formed in New York City in 1858, which evolved into YWCA of the City of New York, and that a group of “benevolent ladies” gathered in 1859 to form the YWCA of Boston, the first to use the name “Young Women’s Christian Association.” News of great opportunity traveled fast, and by 1890 there were 106 like-minded organizations in the United States that evolved into YWCAs.

  • Near-West Knoxville Historic Driving Tour Kingston Pike/Cherokee Blvd/Lyons View Pike/Northshore Dr
    NEAR-WEST KNOXVILLE HISTORIC DRIVING TOUR KINGSTON PIKE/CHEROKEE BLVD/LYONS VIEW PIKE/NORTHSHORE DR Start at the entrance to Tyson Park at 2500 Tyson McGhee Park Street. Total Driving Distance = 8.4 miles 1. TYSON PARK One of Knoxville’s older parks, the Third Creek bottomland had been used by the public since the 1890s, even when it was privately owned and had a makeshift nine-hole golf course on it. But in 1929, Bettie Tyson formally donated the land to the city with an extraordinary proviso: that the city’s airport should always be named for her son, McGhee Tyson, a Navy airman killed in a crash in the North Sea during World War I. 2.. TYSON JUNIOR HIGH 0.2 miles ahead on right Built in 1936 and named in honor of Bettie’s husband, Lawrence Davis Tyson, the World War I general and later U.S. senator who had recently died in office, Tyson was a well-known public school with some facilities considered to be superior to those of nearby UT, which sometimes used the school for public events, like dramatic presentations. It operated as a school for half a century, closing in 1986. Empty for several years, it was handsomely redesigned as an office building in the 1990s. 3.. OAKWOOD 0.1 miles ahead on right The historic home next to Tyson Junior at the corner of Kingston Pike and Concord, Known as Oakwood, it was built in 1870 by the prominent McClung family. For half a century it was a semi-rural residence with a small farm attached.
