Our care extends beyond our patients at The Lucas Center. We’re firm supporters of the Knoxville and East Tennessee communities that continue to inspire and shape us as individuals…
Local Causes Close to Our Heart
These Knoxville organizations are making a meaningful difference, and we’re proud to uplift their missions and teams in our own lives. Each cause reflects values The Lucas Center team holds close: compassion, dignity, and care for others in every stage of life.
Isaiah 117 House
Providing comfort to children entering foster care.
Isaiah 117 House offers a safe, nurturing place for children waiting for foster placement, meeting their immediate needs during a time of transition. What began as one home in Tennessee has grown into a nationwide network of care. The Lucas Center is proud to support this mission — because every child deserves to feel seen and safe.
Helping Mamas Knoxville elevates the well being and dignity of women by providing diapers, period products, and other essential baby supplies. With over 80 partner organizations in 33 counties of East Tennessee, their work helps connect families with basic supplies and resources in their area by harnessing the power of community support.
Supporting Knoxville’s unhoused neighbors with care.
Bill’s Blankets is a local nonprofit dedicated to supporting individuals experiencing homelessness by distributing blankets, clothing, and other essentials throughout Knoxville. Their commitment to meeting people where they are reflects the same empathy and respect that guide our approach to care at The Lucas Center.
Caring for others doesn’t stop when we leave the office. Supporting our community is an extension of who we are — it’s how we put compassion into action.
