Program Director, Dr. John Sweet and Assistant Program Director, Reverend Tim Nuckles spoke Thursday about the children that have been abused, abandoned, and neglected and now are given a chance for a better life, a home, and a family at the Smoky Mountain Children’s Home. They spoke of the homes history, and the donation of Local Artist Paul Murray.
Local Artist, Paul Murray donated two pieces of his artwork to promote awareness and encourage donations to the Smoky Mountain Children’s Home. The sketch entitled Hideaway and the watercolor entitled Troubl’ Darlin’ will become the new “faces” of the SMCH.
