We are honored to feature Black & Veatch as our January corporate spotlight! Black & Veatch has been in partnership with United Way for over 20 years, with their first campaign occurring in 1999. This year, Black & Veatch raised $1.372 million for their campaign with over 1,300 employees donating across the nation, and even a few international donors. Mario Azar, Black & Veatch’s Chairman & CEO, presented this check to Chris Rosson, our very own CEO. To date, Black & Veatch has now raised over $27 million for United Way!
We want to give a special shout out to their campaign committee who run an engaging internal campaign every year: Richard Horne – Campaign Lead, Logan Swanson, Amy Morasch, PHR, Maggie Zehren, SHRM-CP, Elizabeth Hochler, Nate Castrop, Marijan (Mod) Podrebarac, Mike Orth, Betty Blackmore, and Kristen Jones. This amazing group hosts a bi-weekly United Way campaign planning meeting up to their campaign launch!
We are incredibly grateful for our corporate partnerships and the work they do to improve the lives of those in our community. Thank you, Black & Veatch!
