ABOUT AMPLIFY NASHVILLE

JOIN SILOAM HEALTH AS WE CELEBRATE THE IMMIGRANTS WHO HELP OUR CITY FLOURISH.

Amplify Nashville highlights immigrants who have made significant contributions to Nashville, as well as individuals born in the United States who have championed the international community in Nashville.

For more than 30 years, Siloam Health has had a front-row seat to the contributions that immigrants and refugees bring to our city. Now entering its sixth year, Amplify Nashville highlights some of these extraordinary individuals and the entrepreneurial innovation, cultural diversity, and vibrant spirit they bring to their adopted home. We hope you’ll join us to celebrate the immigrants who help our city flourish.

ABOUT OUR HONOREE CATEGORIES

COMMUNITY CATALYST:
As Nashville continues to grow, immigrants and refugees stand out as powerful advocates for change. Often drawing from their own experiences, Community Catalysts advocate for a better Nashville for all, inspiring both their fellow immigrants and longtime Nashvillians to come together, dream big, and be positive forces for good in our community and our city.

CULTURE SHAPER:
In a city best known for country music, Amplify Nashville celebrates the individuals who transform our community through action and their own journey as immigrants and refugees. Culture Shapers bring diversity and richness to Nashville, blazing new trails in their respective fields and broadening our cultural horizons.

GOOD NEIGHBOR:
Whether it’s through civic leadership, entrepreneurial endeavors, or even small acts of kindness, Amplify Nashville is proud to honor immigrants who are committed to improving the quality of life in their community. Good Neighbors make a lasting impact in Nashville by going the extra mile for others and giving back to their adopted home.

BRIDGE BUILDER:
Along with our exceptional immigrant honorees, Amplify Nashville also celebrates U.S.-born individuals who have helped our city take great strides in support of immigrants and refugees. Bridge Builders often stand in the gap, empowering immigrants and native Nashvillians to work alongside one another to build a better Nashville for all who call our city home.
