Pennies for Change
In 2016, ASI launched the Pennies for Change program to give employees a simple way to support charitable organizations locally and nationally.
Employees may contribute a set amount or choose their own per-paycheck donation. At the end of each year, ASI donates the full amount raised and matches the contributions.
Each year, ASI selects three charitable organizations to support. Employees are invited to nominate causes important to them, and final selections are determined through a company-wide vote.
Since the program’s launch, participation and total contributions have steadily increased.
