Organizations that benefited from past proceeds include Bethel Bible Village, Chambliss Center for Children, Boy Scouts of America, Therapeutic Riding of Hixson, Community Reconciliation, Child Advocacy, Lana's Love, Miracle Network, Woodmore Elementary School, Tennessee Baptist Children's Home, and Shop with a Cop.
The club's emphasis is "One Child at a Time" and the club has given as more or more than any other civic club in the Chattanooga area, said officials.
