4th Annual 'Cold for a Cause' benefits the community

Franklin Chamber of Commerce holds annual awards banquet

For the fourth year in a row, Patrick Jenkins spent 48 hours high above Macon County to stir community support for CareNet. This year, Jenkins’ efforts encouraged the community to donate 1,052 pounds of food and more than 2,000 coats to be given to CareNet.

With the help of the community group Franklin Young Professionals Inc. and CareNet Director, Shaina Adkins, once again, Jenkins’ efforts benefited those in need in the community.

Recognizing his efforts, Jenkins was named the Chamber of Commerce’s Citizen of the Year during its annual banquet.
