16th art auction a sweet success

Art of Caring, which raises money systemwide for Baptist hospice programs as well as for the Kemmons Wilson Family Center for Good Grief in Collierville, has been around for 16 years, but last month’s event was the first year for an online auction. Team members throughout the system as well as people in Hawaii, Colorado, New Jersey, Wyoming and Florida, participated. The event raised more than $76,000, and 100 percent of those proceeds will benefit Baptist’s hospice and free bereavement services.
