Welcome to the Be the Good Neighbor Foundation
We are a community-based organization committed to making a positive impact on our community through service and spreading lots of love and kindness. Our mission is to empower and inspire our community to become good neighbors who work together to create a safe, welcoming, and thriving community.
Our organization is made up of a diverse group of individuals who share a common goal of creating positive change in our community. We believe that every person has the power to make a difference, that small acts of kindness can have a big impact and that we are all blessed to be a blessing.
Here are some of the ways we are working to be good neighbors:
Food Love
Nothing says “thank you” and “we appreciate you” like a home cooked meal. We show our love and gratitude for community leaders such as teachers, service men and women, etc by feeding them. We prepare, deliver, and the food with lots of love and gratitude. These are the real community leaders and help to educate our young people and make our communities safe and healthy. We are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of those around us.
Community Events
We organize fun and engaging events that bring our community together. From block parties to movie nights, these events help to build connections and create a sense of belonging among our neighbors.
Sponsorship
We love partnering with local non-profit organizations to help raise money to benefit our community. From offering our cooking services to volunteering, our team is here to help.
Meet The Founder
Raised in West TN, Bryson grew up in a family that served one another and their community. Bryson learned the meaning of community service and giving back to his community early in life. “I remember baking pies and making sandwiches as a child for people in need with my grandmother. Everyone pitched in and we served our community together as a family.”
After starting his State Farm agency in 2007, he was constantly looking for opportunities to get involved with the community. His love of cooking and all things BBQ led him to opening a catering business on the side and he was then able to marry his two passions, helping people and feeding people. In 2020, Bryson moved his agency to Hendersonville, TN. He and his family love being a part of the Hendersonville community. When he’s not in the office or manning the grill, you can find him slipping into his Titan’s Superfan persona, Titanos the Titan, or traveling with his family.
We are proud to offer the Be the Good Neighbor Scholarship, which is awarded annually to a local Hendersonville, TN, high school senior who demonstrates a commitment to community service and leadership.
The scholarship is designed to support students who share our values and who are dedicated to making a positive impact on their community. It is open to students who will be attending college or vocational school in the fall.
