Tandus Employees in Dalton Relay for Life

Dalton, GA, June 8, 2010--Tandus Flooring workforce from the Dalton-based campuses came together as a team to raise money for the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life in Whitfield County.

More than 150 employees participated in the company’s campaign to raise money. The Relay for Life campaign comes off the heels of the Tandus Flooring’s community service day in March where more than 200 national sales executives from the U.S. and Canada volunteered at various locations in Dalton, kicking off “Starting With Me.”
 
For Relay for Life, the company’s efforts ranged from selling donuts, friendly competitions between colleagues to raise the most money, to creative endeavors such as donate your shoe size! The team hosted a tent at the Relay for Life event at the Whitfield County Fairground where fundraising efforts continued through the night putting the total amount of money raised by Team Tandus Flooring at $17,000. Funds will be collected through August for this year’s Relay for Life campaign.

Team members from Tandus Flooring walked around the clock during the Relay for Life 12-hour event to honor and remember those who have fought the disease, and support the American Cancer Society’s efforts.
