NASHVILLE, Tenn. --The Tennessee Titans Foundation has partnered with Pinnacle Financial Partners and CapitalMark Bank & Trust in making a donation to the Chattanooga Heroes Fund. The fund will provide financial support to help the families of those who were killed or wounded in the tragic shootings on July 16 in Chattanooga.
"The Chattanooga Heroes Fund can play a significant role in aiding the healing process for those affected so deeply by this senseless tragedy," said Titans Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors and Controlling Owner Amy Adams Strunk.
