Last month, Unum hosted its annual Back-to-School Bash for the school-aged children who spend the summer at Chambliss Center for Children.

This year, more than 175 Unum employees came out to host a special day that included inflatables, games, a petting zoo, snow cones, face painting, hot dogs, burgers and more. They also stuffed 125 backpacks full of the required school supplies, which are given to some of the children to prepare them for the start of the school year. The day also served as Unum's Day of Caring, so several employees spent time deep-cleaning and organizing some of our classrooms while the children were out enjoying the party.

The kids always look forward to the fun activities, and are especially appreciative of the backpacks full of school supplies.
