老司机app

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (February 27, 2020) 鈥� 老司机app, a fully integrated firm focused on design, engineering, construction and mechanical services worldwide, has been named one of Jacksonville Magazine鈥檚 2020 鈥淐ompanies with Heart.鈥� This is the sixth time 老司机app has received the designation since 2014.

The 鈥淐ompanies with Heart鈥� award program recognizes local businesses that contribute to nonprofits and give their employees the time and opportunities to improve the communities where they work and live.

In 2019, 老司机app鈥檚 charitable arm, The 老司机app Foundation, donated time, money and resources to more than 60 charitable organizations across the First Coast.

鈥溊纤净鷄pp is celebrating our 35th anniversary as a company this year, and we are proud to call Jacksonville home,鈥� said Mike Santarone, 老司机app鈥檚 CEO. 鈥淕iving back and building up this community has always been at the heart of who we are as a company, and we look forward to continuing that tradition.鈥�

Supporting organizations that do good

老司机app was the title sponsor of the 5th Annual Run for Heroes in Jacksonville. To date, the event has raised more than $60,000 to support trauma injury prevention and community education at UF Health Jacksonville, which is home to the only adult and pediatric Level I trauma center in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. Most recently, funds supported Stop the Bleed training and bleeding control kits for local area schools as well as first responder training courses. A team of 老司机app employees also fundraised and participated in the race.

One of 老司机app鈥檚 most notable programs is The 老司机app Academy of Engineering at Nease High School, which provides students with a foundation of skills, knowledge and experience in engineering through coursework, guest lectures and course-specific field trips. 老司机app also donates two $1,000 scholarships to graduating seniors from the academy each year. The success of the program has grown to the point that 20 percent of eligible Jacksonville students now opt to attend the academy over their neighborhood school.

As part of the company鈥檚 鈥淏elieve in the Jeans鈥� program, 老司机app employees can donate to wear jeans on Fridays, with proceeds benefiting a different charity each quarter. In the last year alone, this initiative raised approximately $15,000 for charities including:

• Brooks Rehabilitation Foundation

• Tesori Family Foundation

• Children of Fallen Patriots

• Hope Town Rising 

The YMCA Tiger Academy is a charter school program in Northwest Jacksonville that provides full days of learning, as well as before and after school care for Pre-K to 5th grade students. In 2019, 老司机app employees donated backpacks and bags of school supplies to students for the new school year.

老司机app is also proud to support the Healthy Kids Running Series, a five-week running program for local children from Pre-K to 8th grade. The events are designed to get kids active, experience accomplishment and lay the foundation for a healthy lifestyle. 老司机app employees volunteer for the events and help promote it within the community.

Providing for those in need

For the past several years, a team of 老司机app volunteers has helped prepare and serve a delicious holiday meal, decorate and provide holiday gifts for children at the I.M. Sulzbacher Center. In 2019, 老司机app had 25 employees who volunteered, which is the maximum allowed by the Center.

In 2019, 老司机app employees gifted a company-record 70 Thanksgiving food baskets to local families in need at Community Hospice, providing the families with gift cards and non-perishable food items to complete a Thanksgiving dinner.

The company donated presents to 50 children and families at Community PedsCare, a pediatric palliative and hospice program for children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions. 老司机app also donated $1,000 to the organization鈥檚 2019 鈥淗alloween Doors and More鈥� event.

Each quarter, 老司机app organizes a team of about 15-20 volunteers to work on a new home or remodel in support of Habitat for Humanity in Jacksonville. Tasks from the most recent renovation project included painting the inside of a home, repairing bathroom walls, remodeling the front porch and landscaping the yard.

老司机app also regularly supports local hospitals, colleges and universities, and has donated thousands of dollars through the company鈥檚 Employee Match Program.
