The next phase of Tailgating for a Cause is here...
Do Good

In 2014, Tailgating for a Cause hosted its first charity tailgates before UT football games. That spirit of bringing people together for fun and fundraising became a recipe for success, soon expanding to additional community fundraising events and initiatives, including our largest event, Knoxville Brewfest. 


Doing good was more than fun. We built expertise and a network of community connections, and started to see opportunities to do more than raise funds. In true fashion, we’ve already been inspired, started collaborating, and got to doing...


So, now it’s time to introduce Do Good. A new name for our 501(c)(3) organization that represents the spirit of the last 10 years and the ethos of how we plan to expand our impact through smaller, iterative, and action-based ideas that strengthen our communities and create momentum for positive change in our city


We will continue to put the fun in fundraising with events like Tailgating for a Cause in the fall, along with Knoxville Brewfest in June, while aspiring to achieve even higher goals. We're just getting started, and look forward to sharing more as we progress!
