Our goal at Knoxify is to “bring readers an insiders view on what makes Knoxville, TN great. We also want to emphasize our drive to spark conversation. Building a better community one comment at a time is where it’s at.”

Part of what makes Knoxville great are the numerous non-profit agencies that work to meet the needs of our community.

Inspired by our friends at Chattarati we are happy to announce a new online local giving project called First Friday Five. The first Friday of each month we will profile a local non-profit and ask Knoxify readers to donate $5.

Keep your eyes open this week for the premiere installment of the First Friday Five. With the economic downturn, non-profits are in need of more funds to meet ever growing needs, and we are excited to introduce our readers to worthy agencies. If you are aware of agencies that you would like to see profiled please leave us a comment or use our contact page.

  1. Leslie, it’s great to see Knoxify joining in on First Friday Five! April will be the third round for Chattarati, and we are looking forward to seeing the idea spread.

    Best,

    Editor, Chattarati

  2. What a great idea! Great opportunity to turn that “You know I really should do something…” thought into action.

    I already have an idea or two about who I’d like to see sponsored.
