PENCIL’s annual Back to School Breakfast Fundraiser raises support for our unique programs that promote student success by linking community resources to Nashville public schools. More than 500 business and community members hear from partners, teachers and students, as they share insight into their own experiences with PENCIL’s programs.

PENCIL’s 4^th annual Back to School Breakfast, presented by Elliott Davis, was held both virtually and in-person in August 2021, just as students in Metro Nashville Public Schools returned to the classroom. In total, PENCIL raised $64,000+ from the breakfast which directly increases our ability to provide resources and support to students.
