Acentra Health Campaign Raises $31,000 to Help Southeastern U.S. Communities Recover from Hurricane Devastation
December 03 2024 - 5:29PM
Acentra Health, a technology and health solutions and services
company dedicated to accelerating better outcomes for its
government and commercial healthcare clients and the populations
they serve, announced the company and its employees raised $31,000
in contributions to support relief efforts in the southeastern
United States following the devastation from hurricanes Helene and
Milton. More than half of the total funds raised during the
corporate social responsibility (CSR) campaign were provided as a
company match to support the American Red Cross’ hurricane
response.
“As Americans gather to give thanks and celebrate this holiday
season, we know that many others are still struggling to rebuild
from the devastating loss of back-to-back hurricanes,” said CEO
Todd Stottlemyer. “When the storms hit, Acentra Health employees
embraced the opportunity to help our neighbors in need through
donations of cash, food, and essential items, as well as hands-on
volunteer work. I am thankful to work alongside so many who live
out our company’s core value of passionately serving our
communities.”
The company’s Acentra Health Cares program invited employees to
support the hurricane relief campaign in two meaningful ways,
either by donating to a hurricane relief cause of their choosing or
by volunteering with organizations that align with the company’s
core value of passionately serving local communities. Employees
were also encouraged to use their Acentra Health volunteer time off
benefit, which provides up to eight hours of annual paid leave for
volunteering. In response, Acentra Health matched employee
donations and donated a set dollar amount for each volunteer
activity, further amplifying the positive impact on affected
communities.
At the campaign’s close on November 15, 2024, Acentra Health
employees supported more than 20 organizations providing direct
hurricane relief in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South
Carolina, and Tennessee, all also states where Acentra Health
employees live and work. Employees also logged 176 hours of
volunteer work, consisting of hurricane clean-up, sorting supplies,
and loading delivery trucks. Acentra Health matched employee
contributions in a lump sum to the American Red Cross, for a
campaign grand total of $31,000.
Acentra Health Cares provides corporate social responsibility
opportunities for employees to live the company’s core value of
passionately serving its clients, communities, and colleagues
through philanthropy and volunteering. The program focuses on
making a positive impact on the social determinants of health
affecting the individuals and communities where our employees live
and work.
