And we’re excited to announce that thanks to you and your teammates, we’re making a record-setting a record-setting donation of $1,200,001 to St. Jude! That’s four straight years of at least $1 million going to the hospital and its patients, all thanks to associates like you. How are we able to provide this difference-making contribution? The driving force behind our annual donation is made possible by associates giving just $1 per week, as well as through a company match made in recognition of associate milestones and anniversaries. Plus, the hours our associates put into the Team Up Community Challenge result in an additional contribution to Averitt Cares for Kids. Thanks to the thousands of hours you and your teammates gave back to your communities in 2022, the total matching contribution for the year was an astounding $750,000! “This is such an exciting time for our team, and I’m so proud of what we’re able to do for St. Jude through Averitt Cares for Kids,” says GARY SASSER . “I’m humbled by the way our associates come together to help others in need, and Averitt Cares for Kids is a wonderful example of what’s possible through teamwork.
