Tusculum’s Facilities Management Department lives up to the mission of the University

The Facilities Management Department’s 10th annual Christmas for Kids Auction was a major success, raising $1,719, with all proceeds used to purchase presents for local children in need.

Through the event, facilities helped eight foster children! In addition, the department was able to assist a Tusculum family member, whose child lost a lot of toys in a fire!

“The Facilities Department would like to express our gratitude for the donations that were contributed,” said Chad Grindstaff, facilities management director. “We want you to know how much we appreciate your help and know the children do as well. We would also like to thank the Athletic Department for not only donating several items but also once again providing us lunch during the auction.”
