NASHVILLE, Tenn. - In addition to adding fun and excitement to every Tennessee Titans home game, the Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders are also active members of the Nashville community.
This past season, the cheerleaders participated in more than 70 community service events to give back to the citizens of Nashville. The events ranged from benefiting nationally recognized organizations, such as the American Cancer Society, to local events helping organizations such as the Nashville Rescue Mission and many local schools.
Other charities helped by the cheerleaders include: the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the Veterans Hospital, JDRF benefiting Juvenal Diabetes research, the KVB Foundation, Cortland Finnegan's ARK31 Foundation, and the Keith Bulluck, Believe and Achieve Foundation for foster kids, among many others.
Director of Cheerleading for the Tennessee Titans, Stacie Kinder, explains their dedication to service, stating, "Giving back to the fans and community that support us and our team is the best way to show our appreciation to the city of Nashville."
Over the course of the season each of the cheerleaders are required to participate in ten community service events. However, most of the cheerleaders chose to give more time back to Titans fans by helping the community in even greater numbers.
This past season, cheerleader Lindsey led the team in philanthropic appearances with 25 total community service activities and received the team Community Service Award.
"I am so honored to be this year's recipient of the community service award," said Lindsey, "serving the community is one of the main reason I love being a Titans Cheerleader."
