The Nashville Predators Foundation, along with Preds forward Tanner Jeannot and his wife Keely, will host a Diaper Drive for Mother to Mother on Tuesday (March 8) before the game against the Dallas Stars.

Mother to Mother, a Nashville-based non-profit organization, works to ensure that impoverished children in the community have access to basic essential items.

“I’m excited and honored for my wife and I to be part of this important initiative,” says Jeannot. “As a soon-to-be father, I’ve been able to see first-hand how much this organization means to parents around Nashville and the Middle Tennessee communities. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone in Smashville help us, the Predators Foundation and Mother to Mother out with this cause.”

The Jeannots and the Preds Foundation will each match up to $5,000 worth of donations, making them go three times as far. In partnership with Mother to Mother, donations will be distributed to those in need in the Fort Campbell and Clarksville community as part of Preds Military Week from March 8-12.

Fans are encouraged to drop diapers off at any Bridgestone Arena entrance prior to the 7 p.m. puck drop or purchase from the Amazon wish list.

During the 2020-21 season, the Nashville Predators, Bridgestone Arena, Ford Ice Centers and the Predators Foundation contributed more than $4 million in cash and in-kind gifts throughout the Nashville community and surrounding areas. Since its inception in 1998, the Predators Foundation has awarded over $8 million in grants alone to Nashville-area charitable organizations, including a single-season record of $735,000 in 2020-21.
