The CAMPAIGN KICKOFF will be held Wednesday, September 28th from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in front of the Beaman Student Life Center (rain location- Beaman Student Life Center lobby). Representatives from United Way, Community Shares of Tennessee and Community Health Charities of Tennessee will be available for questions about the various agencies.

If you submit your pledge online or in paper form by Friday, September 30th, you will be eligible to win a door prize! Agency brochures will be sent by campus mail to faculty and staff on Tuesday, September 27th.
