Tractor Supply Company Foundation Donates $100,000 to The COVID-19 Response Fund for Greater Nashville

Tractor Supply Company (“Tractor Supply”), the largest rural lifestyle retailer in the United States, announced it will donate $100,000 through the Tractor Supply Company Foundation to the United Way of Greater Nashville’s COVID-19 Response Fund.

The COVID-19 Response Fund is facilitated by United Way of Greater Nashville in partnership with Mayor John Cooper’s office and local corporate and philanthropic partners. Chaired by former Senator Bill Frist, MD, the Fund addresses the health and economic challenges of COVID-19 by rapidly deploying resources to community-based organizations in need of funds to meet the immediate needs of individuals affected by the crisis.

“The Tractor Supply team is honored to do our part to give back and help our hometown neighbors who are facing unprecedented challenges during COVID-19,” said Mary Winn Pilkington, Tractor Supply’s Senior Vice President of Investor Relations and Public Relations and President of the Tractor Supply Company Foundation. “We have a longstanding partnership with United Way of Greater Nashville, and we are proud of the way our community has come together over the past few months through the COVID-19 Response Fund to support the many nonprofits that are providing much-needed assistance to families and individuals.”

Headquartered in Brentwood, Tennessee, Tractor Supply Company has been running workplace campaigns with United Way for nearly 15 years. The 2019 campaign raised over $1 million for United Way of Williamson County, the largest single-employer donation to the organization. The Company’s current donation is being made through the newly established Tractor Supply Company Foundation, which was introduced with an initial focus on COVID-19 recovery efforts.

Agencies that received the funding are providing basic essentials, childcare services, crisis support, domestic violence support, food security, healthcare, immigration services, mental health support, personal protective equipment, rent/mortgage assistance and utility assistance to those in need.

As funds are distributed, United Way publishes the receiving agencies, along with the help they can provide and contact information, at www.NashvilleResponseFund.com. One hundred percent of the Fund goes to nonprofits to help individuals impacted by COVID-19 and agencies that need organizational support.
