Why We're Part of TAG:
"TAG is very similar to a great non-profit I was involved with in Nashville for almost 10 years, and it was an easy decision to join such a great organziation that so many of our high school friends had founded. My brother also passed away unexpectedly from a brain aneurysm ten years ago, and Preston and I both have grandparents that have suffered from dementia and Alzheimer's. There is a lot of research to be done in the area of brain health and therefore even more funding that needs to be raised!" -Whitney
