This day is about more than service—it's about character, kindness, and showing our community how much we care. 💪 🙏 A huge thank-you goes out to the local businesses and organizations that supported this event and sponsored our bright orange t-shirts—we couldn’t have done it without you! #CMSCaresDay #ChillicotheMS #CommunityStrong #CMSGivesBack #GratefulForOurSponsors ❤️
