Good morning Memphis, where rain is forecast to return after a flawless weather weekend, we re entering week two of the M bridge closure and preparing for the Grizzlies appearance in the play-in game Wednesday.
But, first, we re talking about outreach to get more vaccine information to Memphis residents. Have you got your vaccine yet? called Harold Collins, director of Shelby County s office of reentry, to a resident as he walked by, brochure in hand. I got mine both shots!
Collins was one of about 15 volunteers, some employees of Shelby County Government and others members of Mayor Lee Harris newly formed COVID-19 community council, who took to the streets of South Memphis in the Get the Facts, Trust the Vax” campaign Friday, our Katherine Burgess reports.

November and December traditionally come with many opportunities for Memphis-based International Paper colleagues to come together to serve those most in need during the holiday season. While team members were not able to volunteer in person due to social distancing efforts, International Paper is proud to continue to support the Memphis community this holiday season. The mobilization of our products and resources helped nonprofit organizations to serve those most in need during multiple holiday community events:
MEMFeast 2020: Traditionally held at Memphis City Hall, this year 3,000 meals were prepared and distributed in to-go containers from food trucks and tents that were set up at six church parking lots throughout the city. International Paper provided funding and 2,000 corrugated trays to assist with food distribution to those in need.
