​Tennessee TSA American Cancer Society Fundraiser

This year, Tennessee TSA is hosting a statewide challenge to raise money for the National TSA service partner the American Cancer Society (ACS). Starting now, each chapter will race to raise the most money for the ACS before state conference. The chapters who raise the most will win the competition, be recognized on social media, and receive a special award at the state conference. For fundraising ideas, check the resources on our website. Good luck to everyone!
