Sun Tan City raised $10,599 for the Chattanooga Ronald McDonald House, a “home away from home” for seriously ill and injured children through their $5 spray tan event on April 21-24. Eight Sun Tan City locations participated in the fundraising event. The branches included Fort Oglethorpe, Rome, Dalton, Hixson, Signal Mtn. Road, Hamilton Place, Cleveland, and Ooltewah. 

The amount raised will go to help the charity’s Share-a-Night Fund, which focuses on covering the cost of a family’s stay.
It costs the charity $66 to house one family for one night. With 26 families, the cost adds up. Sun Tan City’s donation helps keeps the 26-bedroom home running for nearly an entire week.   

“The Sun Tan City Cares Initiative takes much pride in partnering with local charities, as it is an honor to be able to participate with organizations that are core to our beliefs and values.  It is through the continued passion and support of staff and our valued clients as well. During our Sun Tan City Cares Events, Sun Tan City hosts $5 Spray Events in which clients can donate $5 to the partnered charity and receive a free spray tan. It is a special time to see our staff, clients, and charity members come together to contribute to such important causes,” said Sun Tan City Managing Operator Garrett Bruner.
