Averitt Giving

Averitt Cares for Kids

The mission of Averitt Cares for Kids is to give back to our communities and help make a difference in the lives of others. In an effort to focus entirely on children, we updated the name of the program in 2007 from “Averitt Cares” to “Averitt Cares for Kids.” In doing so, we pledged that all future contributions will benefit causes that improve and save the lives of children, including St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

Since 1986, Averitt Cares for Kids has donated over $15 million to charities.

Averitt Cares for Kids is a non-profit charitable giving organization funded by and on behalf of our associates. Since 1986, Averitt associates have touched the lives of the less fortunate through this program.

The organization is funded through associate contributions, as well as through company contributions made in recognition of associates' accomplishments, participation in Team Up Community Challenge projects, and life events. Associates elect to have $1 per week contributions deducted from their payroll on a weekly basis.

Uniform Recycling

We are deeply committed to giving back. Several years ago, when looking for a way to ramp up our giving efforts, we partnered with Matthew 25 Ministries – a humanitarian aid and disaster relief organization that rescues and reuses products to help people all around the world.

Every shirt our associates donate to be recycled goes to them – where it’s de-branded and passed on to those who need it most. And while the immediate humanitarian aid is by far the most important aspect of the contribution, the impact is felt in many other ways as well.
