TIFTON — Southwell employees raised more than $48,000 for the Southwell Community Spirit Fund, which benefits four regional charities: Horizons Community Solutions (formerly the Cancer Coalition of South Georgia), United Way of South Central Georgia, the Tift Regional Medical Center Employee Benevolent Fund, and the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Cook County.

Southwell employees held numerous events in 2021 to raise the funds, including special retail sales, basket raffles, T-shirt sales, and other functions.
