AAM apoya a los trabajadores de la policía local, bomberos, hospitales y restaurantes durante la COVID-19

 

 

Cuando la crisis de la COVID-19 golpeó el área de Detroit, AAM quiso ayudar a los héroes locales que estaban en primera línea atendiendo a la comunidad. La empresa también quiso ayudar a las empresas locales afectadas por los cierres de áreas y clausuras.

Trabajando con varias organizaciones locales, #TeamAAM proporcionó miles de comidas a trabajadores de hospitales, bomberos y oficiales de policía de restaurantes locales de propiedad familiar o independientes. La empresa también proporcionó equipo de protección personal (PPE, por sus siglas al inglés) a la ciudad de Detroit para su uso por parte de los trabajadores de primera línea.

"Quisimos apoyar a nuestros héroes locales de primera línea mientras ayudamos a las empresas locales afectadas repentinamente por la pandemia", expresó Chris Son, vicepresidente de marketing y comunicaciones de AAM. "Estamos muy agradecidos de los trabajadores de primera línea que se han dedicado tanto durante la pandemia. Estábamos todos juntos en esto y no podríamos haberlo hecho sin ellos".

Durante un período de dos semanas, AAM trabajó con Frontline Appreciation Group (FLAG) y Feed the Frontlines Detroit para entregar más de 2700 comidas a los hospitales de la zona para alimentar a médicos, enfermeras y equipos de apoyo durante la pandemia. Las comidas las proporcionaron restaurantes pequeños, muchos de los cuales se vieron afectados por los cierres de comedores interiores.

"Un agradecimiento especial a AAM que hizo una donación muy generosa a FLAG que nos permitirá servir casi 2000 comidas preparadas por 8 restaurantes a 4 hospitales durante dos semanas. Las entregas de cada día ayudan a apoyar no sólo a nuestros héroes locales de primera línea, sino que ayudan a generar negocios muy necesarios a muchos restaurantes locales que luchan por mantenerse a flote", afirmó el equipo de FLAG.

#TeamAAM también ayudó a entregar más de 2400 comidas a los Departamentos de Policía de Detroit y Hamtramck, y 800 comidas al Departamento de Bomberos de Detroit mediante un esfuerzo comunitario liderado por Matt Shepard, el locutor de los Tigres de Detroit.

Empleados de AAM visitaron varios recintos para entregar comidas y extender el agradecimiento de AAM a los oficiales que trabajan cerca de la oficina central de la empresa en Detroit.

AAM también proporcionó el muy necesario PPE, lo que incluye mascarillas faciales, desinfectante de manos y artículos de protección a la ciudad de Detroit para su uso según sea necesario por hospitales, socorristas y trabajadores de emergencias.

Además, AAM hizo una donación considerable a Pope Francis Center por sus esfuerzos para contener la COVID-19. Ubicado en el corazón del centro de Detroit, Pope Francis Center presta servicios a la población sin hogar de la ciudad, los que incluyen comidas, duchas calientes, instalaciones de lavandería y acceso a médicos, dentistas, abogados y proveedores de vivienda.
