Ames team members spread all kinds of cheer in the final quarter of 2023. Thank you for making a positive impact in your communities!
đ Trunk or Treat
The Southwest Regionâs Arizona Shop was happy to pitch in and support Belen Soto Elementary Schoolâs Trunk-or-Treat event in October by donating lighting. The lighting provided hundreds of children and their families the ability to have a safe and fun community eventâand the shop team that put it together received some pretty sweet thank-you letters in return!
Pictured (from left) are Bobby âBudâ Whitford, Larry Lant, Santiago Ramos and Sean Sanchez. Bud also volunteered his own time to go to the school to make sure that everything was set up and working properly for the event. Thank you, Bud!
𧸠Toy and Food Drives
Thank you to everyone who donated to the annual toy and food drives at the Colorado office and surrounding project field offices. The new toys were donated to the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots and the food to the Food Bank of the Rockies.
The team at our Corporate and Midwest Region office in Burnsville, Minnesota, also collected new toys and books for Toys for Tots. We appreciate your kindness and generosity!
đ Stockings for Heroes
Coworkers from Amesâ Corporate and Midwest Region office gathered in early December to pack stockings with treats, games, and essentials for Stockings for Heroes. The stockings were donated to Soldiersâ Angels, a network of volunteers who support members of the military, veterans, and their families. Soldiersâ Angels delivered the stockings to active-duty service members, Guard and Reserve members, and veterans in VA hospitals.
