On September 25, 2024, a dedicated group of volunteers came together for a donation event to support the Tennessee’s Regional Intervention Program (RIP). This event was part of an ongoing effort throughout the summer to raise funds for RIP’s essential services, which provide early intervention and behavioral support to children and their families. Through various efforts during the summer, including lemonade stands and other fundraising activities, the volunteers collectively raised an impressive $3,000.
The September 25 event was one of many initiatives that contributed to this total, with volunteers working diligently to engage the community and raise awareness for the program. Their hard work and dedication not only provided financial support for RIP but also demonstrated the power of teamwork and community involvement. The volunteers’ efforts reflect their commitment to giving back and supporting children’s mental and emotional well-being through RIP’s impactful programs.
