The Gift of Community: Greater Faith Temple Memphis "Community Day"

[00:00:00] Welcome to the Pulse of the Bluff podcast where every day we celebrate the real stories and good vibes that make Memphis special. Today, we're shining our spotlight on an event that represents exactly what community is all about. [00:00:15] You know what makes Memphis strong? It's not just our history or our music. It's how we show up for each other. That's why Greater Faith Temple's Community day on Saturday, May 3, matters so much. In a time when so many feel disconnected, this is where neighbors become friends, where local businesses find new customers, and where families access vital health services all in one place, all for free. [00:00:41] Let's talk numbers for a moment. Last year's event drew 300 plus attendees. That's 300 opportunities to support local entrepreneurs keeping dollars in our community. Get life saving health screenings that might otherwise be hard to access, connect with resources that could change someone's life. And most importantly, strengthen the bonds that make Memphis home. This isn't just another street fair. It's a movement. When you attend Community Day, you're voting with your feet for the kind of city we all want to live in. You're saying yes to health equity through free mammograms and blood drives. Economic opportunity for small businesses, safe, wholesome fun for our youth and that special Memphis spirit that no other city can duplicate. [00:01:33] Think about the ripple effect when you buy from a local vendor. That money circulates in our community. [00:01:40] When you get a health screening, you're potentially saving your family from heartache. When you bring your kids, you're showing them what community looks like. Here's how you can be part of this. Memphis vendors secure your spot for just $75 by calling 901-3459-9959.
