Operation Pink Chairs
Head Springs Depot is honored to team up with local teen Girl Scout Olivia Bratcher and the Williamson Medical Center Foundation for their Pink Chair Project initiative that provides recliner chairs for recovering breast cancer patients to use after surgery.Â
Olivia’s mother, Amy, had breast cancer and received the recommendation to get a recliner to make her recovery from surgery practical and comfortable. Olivia’s inspiration for the Pink Chair Project came when her mother received a recliner from another breast cancer survivor who would lend out her personal recliner to women recovering after breast surgery. Olivia and Seth Hall, of Head Springs Depot, came up with a program to serve the community of local breast cancer patients.
How does it work?
Operation Pink Chairs has become an arm of the Williamson Medical Center Foundation to raise funds for the purchase recliners that the Williamson Health breast health navigators can assign to patients after surgery on a library system. Head Springs Depot stores the chairs, delivers them to the breast cancer patients home just prior to their surgery and once the patient is back on their feet, they will return the chair so it can be used by another patient in need. Head Springs Depot has provided the recliners at their cost and operates the program in conjunction with the Williamson Health Center at no charge to the patients or the hospital since 2020.

Home With Heart Raffle
When Head Springs Depot’s co-owner, Seth Hall, heard about the Home With Heart Raffle project with Willow Branch Homes to benefit Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt, he knew they had to jump in and do their part. Not just because of the amazing cause it’s supporting, but also for the Hall family’s personal experience with this incredible local children’s hospital.Â
Seth’s nephew, Greyson, was a heart warrior at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital. He was born on August 31, 2018, in Franklin, Tennessee, and was emergency transported to Vanderbilt’s Children’s Hospital at 3 days old. After spending his initial time in the NICU, he was admitted for open-heart surgery at 6 weeks old. From there, they began the listing process for a transplant.Â
How do we partner with the Home with Heart program?
Head Springs Depot has furnished and decorated multiple homes built by Willow Branch Homes that have been a part of the Home with Heart Team’s annual Home Giveaway Raffle and has also donated a $5000 shopping spree gift card to one of the raffle winners each year as well. Be on the lookout each year for a way to be a fun part of supporting this incredible local hospital who serves so many families locally in Nashville, TN and nationally as families travel cross country to be under the care of the teams at Monroe Carell Jr Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt.
Tennessee Baptist Children's Home
The team at Tennessee Baptist Children’s Home began construction on all new facilities for the children they serve in 2024 right here in Brentwood, TN and approached Head Springs Depot for assistance in furnishing all of their new homes for adult care providers and the children as well living on property. Head Springs Depot's Design Team jumped into action helping design, deliver and install kid friendly furniture, mattresses, rugs and more all at cost or substantial discounts to help this organization continue their mission of serving Tennessee Children who need it greatly.
Tennessee Kids Belong
The Partnership with Tennessee Kids Belong began in 2018 to help any foster families furnish their homes to serve children in the community by offering any family with a TN Foster Family ID card a 20% discount on anything they need from Head Springs Depot. If you know a foster family who has furniture or mattress needs please send them our way!
