Community

HARDAWAY has always understood the importance of volunteering in the community and the positive impact these efforts can have on the receiving organization and the participating employee. We have remained committed to volunteering our time and resources throughout our history. Here are a few organizations we have supported recently creating satisfaction for all involved through connecting with our community.

American Cancer Society

What is Relay? Relay for Life is the American Cancer Society's largest community fundraiser in the world. It's a unique event that offers everyone in the community the opportunity to participate in the fight against cancer. Relay for Life represents the hope that those lost to cancer will never be forgotten, that those who face cancer will be supported and that one day cancer will be eliminated.

This is HARDAWAY's fifth year in sponsoring the East Nashville Relay for Life.

The fifth Annual East Nashville Relay for Life will be held Friday, May 4, 2012 from 6 pm to 6 am, Saturday, May 5, 2012 at Elmington Park.

This year will not be any different than the past four years, HARDAWAY began fundraising in November and has several other activities planned in order to reach our goal of $5,000. Please join us to help fight cancer.

LUMINARIES: For $10.00 you can purchase a glowing tribute for a friend or loved one who has experienced cancer. For information contact Sharon Hackett at 615.254.5461 ext. 4860.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee

HARDAWAY participated in the "Bowl for kids' Sake" DMG Bowl-O-Rama 2009 event to help raise funds for the Big Brothers Big Sisters organization (BBBS). With the help of our sponsors, HARDAWAY raised $5,070 for BBBS, receiving the award of Top Fundraising Team. As a bonus for being the Top Fundraising Team, HARDAWAY was able to "Pick a Titan" to bowl with. Kevin Dyson, a former Tennessee Titans player (89-03) donated his time to help BBBS and bowled with our team. HARDAWAY was also the Grand Champions of the night for the event. The DMG Bowl-O-Rama event raised a total of $40,396 for BBBS, which allows 40 children to be placed with a Big Brother or Big Sister. A sincere thank you to all who supported the HARDAWAY team!

Project Pencil

The 2011-2012 school year begins our 27th year as partners with Jere Baxter Middle School. As an annual tradition, HARDAWAY employees welcome students back to school by greeting them as they arrive on the buses and present them with a HARDAWAY "pencil". Other activities we've sponsored this year are as follows:

August - On the first (1/2 day) of school, HARDAWAY sponsored and helped serve breakfast to parents registering their children for the new school year. On the first full day of school, HARDAWAY employees handed out pencils and welcomed students as they arrived. HARDAWAY also sponsored an Ice Cream Social for students and faculty.
September - HARDAWAY sponsored a parent breakfast.
November - HARDAWAY sponsored a faculty & staff breakfast.
December - HARDAWAY sponsored a breakfast & games for students.

American Heart Association
HARDAWAY's employees have participated in the Nashville Heart Walk for the past several years. Those who participated not only walked, but also raised money for the cause as well. In October 2005 HARDAWAY's Heart Walk Committee decided to have an annual chili cook-off lunch to raise money for this event. On April 17, 2008, HARDAWAY lost one of its best lead men, Jerry D. Moore (J.D.) to a heart attack. J.D. was as dedicated as they come and touched countless lives during his life. J.D. was without question, a "Top-Notch" employee, therefore, we changed the name of our annual chili cook-off in January 2009 to the J.D. Moore Annual Chili Cook-off to benefit The American Heart Association. To date, HARDAWAY has raised over $23,500 for the American Heart Association.
