Nashville, Tenn. (Sept. 25, 2025) -The Nashville Predators have partnered with Hunt Brothers® Pizza to deliver lunch throughout the year to a variety of schools in the Middle Tennessee area as part of their “Hunk of Appreciation” program. Additionally, Predators partner Frito-Lay is providing accompanying snacks to the teachers.
Feeding the Frontlines is a program the Predators started during COVID when meals were delivered to police stations, fire stations and hospitals to thank our frontline workers. When schools reopened, the program continued monthly, feeding and thanking teachers and faculty in Middle Tennessee schools under the name “Hunk of Appreciation.” More than 5,000 teachers have been recognized through this program since March 2021.
