Have you ever said “I can’t do much because I don’t have a lot of money to give.” That is not what the students at Tennessee Technology Center at McKenzie said. The McKenzie Campus Student Senate took the attitude that every penny counts. They hosted a Penny Drive competition among classes at the McKenzie and Martin locations to raise funds for the McKenzie Family Readiness support group of our local guard unit.
The students raised $2,000 that they presented to readiness group volunteers. “This has been such a special competition among our students and faculty and we are so glad to be able to donate the money to such a worthwhile cause,” stated Melissa Franks, Student Senate President. The competitions were won by the Business Systems Technology class at McKenzie and the Industrial Maintenance Class in Martin.
