When we say we’re “All In,” we mean it.
Aeronix recently concluded the United Way 2025 Campaign, surpassing fundraising goals in a campaign that combined teamwork and creativity that was fueled by a little friendly competition.
Employees raised $96,000, exceeding every benchmark set along the way.
The campaign included a kickoff lunch, raffle giveaways, and the ever popular “Bosses Breakfast” where the bosses ran the grill, complete with tip jars. The event was designed to bring teams together while supporting a shared cause.
But it was a lighthearted challenge between two leaders that captured everyone’s attention.
Supply Chain Manager Steve Ward volunteered John Brand, Sr. Business Development Manager, to shave his head if the campaign reached $70,000.
Not to be outdone, Brand raised the stakes, volunteering Ward to do the same if the team reached $80,000.
So when the final total reached $96,000, both gentlemen followed through, bringing the campaign to a memorable close.
“This campaign reflects the character of our organization,” said Erika Marunde, Chief Financial Officer, Aeronix Technologies Group. “The team showed creativity, integrity, and a genuine willingness to support one another and to benefit the community where we live and work. The outcome speaks not just to the dollars raised, but to the culture behind it.”
Nathan Smith, President, C6ISR, added, “What stood out most was how naturally our teams came together. That sense of shared purpose, of being accountable to one another and to something bigger, is core to how we operate every day.”
From start to finish, the 2025 United Way Campaign demonstrated what’s possible when people rally around a common goal. For Aeronix, being all in means delivering for the mission, supporting our communities, and standing behind our commitments, without exception.
