“Supporting communities where we live and work is at the core of who we are,” said Andy Green, president of HII’s Mission Technologies division. “The mission-critical solutions we deliver everyday connect us through service to our nation, and the Global Day of Caring initiative gives us an opportunity to connect through service to our communities.”
Projects ranged from food drives, heart walks and youth educational support, to litter clean-ups and trail restoration. This year’s Global Day of Caring also included an American Red Cross blood drive. More community service activities will continue in the coming weeks.
