As part of AET's year-long 30th Anniversary celebrations, we made three donations to non-profit organisations in Greater Houston and Galveston to support local communities. Among these organisations is United Way of Greater Houston, a valued partner with whom we have fostered a strong relationship that continues to open up meaningful volunteer opportunities for our team.
Our US colleagues recently volunteered with United Way at the BakerRipley House to support families in need, joining dedicated volunteers to sort and bag fresh produce and essential food items which were then distributed to 147 families facing food insecurity.
Raheem Stewart, Manager, Projects & Operations, said:“Participating in the AET-sponsored food distribution event with United Way was humbling and inspiring experience. It was a powerful reminder of how small, collective efforts can have a big impact. By working together to pack and distribute food, we not only addressed immediate needs but also offered families a sense of support and hope. I am grateful to have been part of this cause and to see the difference we can make as a team.”
This experience brought our team closer and reinforced the value of coming together to support those in need. We look forward to our next #AETcares initiative and to continuing our efforts to making a positive impact in the communities where we operate.
