The holiday season is a time of giving, but for many families in our community, it can also bring uncertainty and worry about how to provide gifts for their children. GraceWorks Ministries, a remarkable organization based in our area, is dedicated to serving low-income residents through their mission of "Neighbor serving Neighbor, by the power of God’s grace." Their annual Manger Christmas Program allows parents to shop the Manger inventory and choose toys for their children for a small $5 donation, ensuring that the joy of giving is accessible to all. Recently, several team members, including CJ McMunn, Denice Edmunds, Mark Ferguson, and others, had the privilege of helping inventory toys for this program. We spent our day organizing toys by age group to ensure parents could easily find gifts for their children. Giving back to our local community—what we call "planting seeds"—is central to our mission at Provisions Group. We're grateful for the opportunity to support GraceWorks in bringing hope and joy to those in need this holiday season, and we invite you to join us in planting seeds in our Nashville community. #PlantingSeeds #CommunityService

We love to recognize our incredible team members at Provisions Group! Today, we’re spotlighting Garrison Price, our Healthcare Client Development Representative. Garrison grew up in Texas and Kingston Springs, Tennessee, alongside his eight siblings. After playing college baseball at Dallas Baptist University and Bryan College and earning a degree in Sports Management, he shifted gears to a Ministry/Seminary program in Dallas. Since moving back to Nashville in 2021, Garrison has been with Provisions Group for 2.5 years, starting on the Community team, then transitioning to recruiting, and now thriving in a Sales Partner role for Healthcare clients. As he puts it, “The people and the relationships are the most important part of my role. I’m grateful for the opportunity to build relationships with industry leaders and remarkable individuals, while also supporting their organizations through staffing and consulting." Outside of work, Garrison enjoys playing golf, fly fishing, engaging in any competitive games, and hosting friends. A fun fact about Garrison? He interned for the Austrian Red Cross and is a certified paramedic—so we feel pretty safe around here! 😂 We’re thrilled to have Garrison's energy and dedication on our team, driving meaningful connections and support for our clients. #WinAtWork #HealthTech
