IEA supports St. Jude with company-wide fundraising initiative
In late July, we announced our very first company-wide fundraiser. After twelve weeks of independent and collective fundraising, we now can officially celebrate raising nearly $170,000 to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. With an original goal of $100,000, we have clearly exceeded our expectations and we couldn't thank the IEA Family of companies enough for their creativity to fundraise donations.
"Our efforts are humbling," said Andy Hayes, VP of Supply Chain at IEA. "This is the first national fundraiser and event where the entire IEA family of companies participated and it's incredible to think of where we were when we started this effort."
As we look back, we are continually reminded of the big hearts and generosity of our employees. With an amount this size, we understand that we couldn't have done it without all of you. The reason that we first engaged with St. Jude was due to the alignment of our values that included: community engagement, innovation and family. What we did for St. Jude goes back to our culture and the DNA of our company. As JP stated, "IEA is a people and family company."
With a goal in 2021 to sponsor a major corporate charitable organization, we can say that we successfully completed our goal. As we reflect on the years to come, we look forward to the continued relationship with St. Jude and what we will accomplish next year.
