Background:
Barry Coggins became a volunteer driver for FiftyForward Fresh/Meals on Wheels when he moved to Nashville in 1993. The sheer amount of time that Barry has given to FiftyForward Fresh/Meals on Wheels makes him extraordinary. It is estimated that in his 25+ years of service Coggins has volunteered at least 3,000 hours and delivered more than 9,000 meals to home- bound older adults in our community. His commitment to fundraising through the annual golf tournament and ancillary events have resulted in revenues of more than $50,000 over 19 years. Additionally, he has increased awareness of the needs of program customers and elders in general. It is his wish to honor the 20th anniversary of the golf tournament with the goal of raising $20,000 for the FiftyForward Fresh/Meals on Wheels program.
