About the Bee


The bee became the symbol of The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee on our 10th birthday in 2001. Why? The Community Foundation bee represents philanthropy, which is, at its heart, crosspollination: gathering from those who have and getting it to those who need.

The bee is industrious. It can change direction easily to address the needs of its community. It flourishes in the midst of a hive of activity and intrinsically understands that the contributions of each enrich all.

A bee never works alone, but one bee, like one person, can make a difference … allowing a field to flower … an orchard to bear fruit … a community to prosper.

You can find our bees buzzing around The Community Foundation’s office at 3833 Cleghorn Avenue, Nashville, TN 37215.
