How does faith inform our work?

At Corner to Corner, we are compelled by the love of Christ to love our neighbors as ourselves. One of the primary ways that we love ourselves and our own families is through taking care of our financial needs. We believe the call to love our neighbors well is a direct invitation to invest in their financial future as well as our own. This shows up in how we seek to create a culture of “us” in all of our programs.

We believe that all of us are Image Bearers of a loving and creative God - meaning that ALL of our neighbors have passion, creativity, and a drive to succeed.

As a nonprofit, we build on-ramps of opportunity so our neighbors can use their God-given passions in a way that leads to economic flourishing for them and their families. These values of the gospel inform all that we do and push us toward the gospel-informed priorities of racial justice, economic development, and faithful presence that are embodied in all of our programs.

Our History

Corner to Corner was founded by Will and Tiffany Acuff in 2011. Compelled by the invitation of Jesus to ‘love our neighbors as we love ourselves,’ Will and Tiffany sought to create a relationship-centered nonprofit that focused on seeing neighbors flourish on their own terms. In partnership with the community, the first program was aimed at equipping the justice-involved with the necessary skills to gain meaningful employment and an invitation to walk together in the love of Christ. Since those early days, Corner to Corner has grown and expanded programming throughout Middle Tennessee, all in meaningful partnership with neighbors.
