Aeroflow invests in Western North Carolina 

ASHEVILLE, N.C. - Aeroflow Health has launched a new philanthropic giving program that aims to give back several million dollars to the western North Carolina community over the next five years. 

Along with offering financial support to local non-profit organizations, Aeroflow is empowering employees to actively participate in building a stronger and healthier community by providing 16 hours of annual Community Day PTO for volunteer work. 

“Investing in Western North Carolina means investing in the health and well-being of our employees, neighbors, friends, family, and future generations,” said Casey Hite, CEO of Aeroflow Health. “Rooted in our belief that true success is measured by the positive impact we have on people’s lives, our goal is to support the communities we serve by contributing to the local organizations that uplift our neighborhoods and by encouraging all employees to step out of the office and make hands-on contributions to local causes. As a result, we aim to achieve a 25% annual increase in total volunteer participation hours from our team members locally and those spread out across the country.” 

Aeroflow’s new philanthropy giving program will support the following organizations: Asheville Buncombe Community Christian Ministry, Mountain Area Health Education Center, Asheville Area Habitat for Humanity, United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County, Meals on Wheels of Asheville Buncombe County, Boys & Girls Club of Henderson County, and Haywood Street Community Development. These organizations were selected for their focus on improving access to health care, providing reliable housing options and offering learning opportunities essential for creating pathways to expanded opportunities and improved well-being. 

In addition, Aeroflow will dedicate a portion of the funds to community initiatives that are important to its employees. Employees can submit philanthropy requests through a streamlined portal, allowing monetary donations to be directly given to the causes they care most about. Aeroflow’s philanthropy committee thoughtfully evaluates organizations on transparency, volunteer opportunities, and mission fit to ensure meaningful impact for underserved populations across Western North Carolina and beyond. 

This five-year philanthropic commitment follows a string of efforts aimed at uplifting the Asheville community, including offering financial support to local organizations, women-owned businesses, and hurricane relief support for employees.
