Predators Captain Provides Gift To Help Feed Hungry In Uncertain Times

As Roman Josi said on Tuesday during his first media availability since the pause of the 2019-20 NHL season: Were all in this together.

On Thursday, the Predators captain did his part in a big way.

Josi donated $20,000 to Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee in an effort to make an impact in the community and help feed those who need it most during these unprecedented times.

The money will be put to use immediately by Second Harvest, who has gone from assisting the Nashville community with tornado relief efforts to now dealing with the coronavirus pandemic in the region. Its been a busy few weeks, and a gift like Josis couldnt have come at a better time.

We are so appreciative to be the recipient of Roman Josis generosity, President & CEO of Second Harvest Food Bank Nancy Keil said. We are so thankful for our relationship with the Predators, and it means everything to have a player like Roman make a personal commitment to the fight against hunger.

Im donating to Second Harvest because they are doing such a great job of helping people in need right now, Josi said. With no one going to school, theres a void for the breakfasts and lunches that kids would typically receive there. In times like these, it is important that we all come together as a community and are helping people who might not have the same resources as us.

And just like Josi did, there are ways to help those less fortunate during these trying times.
