With large in-person gatherings and fundraising events on currently on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many businesses and organizations are finding new ways to support Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt.
Delta Dental of Tennessee, a longtime supporter of Children’s Hospital, is a presenting sponsor every year for the Rascal Flatts Celebrity Golf Classic, a fall fundraising tournament which was cancelled for 2020 due to the pandemic. Delta Dental, along with its charitable arm, the Smile180 Foundation, still wanted to donate to Children’s Hospital.
