AIR Communities Team Gives Back During National Week of Service


Denver, Dec. 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hundreds of Apartment Income REIT Corp. (known as AIR Communities or AIR) teammates volunteered their time in November to address local needs through the company's philanthropic program, AIR Gives.

The annual fall service campaign is one of the many ways AIR supports local communities.  Through AIR Gives, every AIR teammate receives 15 hours of paid time annually to volunteer in their local area. In addition, for each hour a teammate volunteers, the teammate receives a $15 match to be contributed to the nonprofit organization of that teammate’s choice. In 2022, teammates across the country have volunteered more than 1200 hours in their communities.

“Providing homes is a high calling to serve others, and AIR Gives is at the heart of our team’s commitment to building community,” said AIR’s Chief Corporate Responsibility Officer Patti Shwayder. “When we care for each other and our neighbors, we make a positive impact in the communities in which we live and work while also building a team that feels engaged, connected, and inspired about the important work they do.”

As a team-driven volunteer program, AIR Gives provides the flexibility for teammates to support nonprofit organizations or initiatives that mean the most to them. Teammates have chosen to clean up local parks, serve meals for direct service organizations, stock items at local food banks, and more. Highlights from the 2022 fall service initiative include:

  • In partnership with The Greenway Foundation, AIR teammates in the Denver metro area cleaned up over 400 pounds of trash from the Cherry Creek Greenway.

  • The AIR team in Washington, DC, organized a community food drive benefitting Food for Others, where residents and teammates donated 611 pounds of food for individuals and families facing food insecurity in Fairfax County.

In addition to providing volunteer opportunities, AIR Gives also offers teammates support in obtaining U.S. citizenship, emergency financial assistance, and scholarship funds for their children.
