Alaska Airlines recently completed its annual Week of CARE, during which over 500 employees participated in more than 30 volunteer events across the country. The company logged 1,200 hours of service aimed at supporting communities in need.

The efforts included preparing 3,700 meals at Lifelong in Seattle and packing 15,522 meals at Feed My Starving Children in Phoenix. Additionally, volunteers sorted 7,000 pounds of food at Food Lifeline to assist those facing food insecurity.

The initiative extended to other areas as well. In Alaska, volunteers created 200 welcome kits and donated 150 pounds of food and drinks for the Fisher House. In Idaho, they packed weekend meal bags with handwritten cards for youth at the Ada County Boys and Girls Club.

In San Francisco, the team assembled 1,200 activity kits and crafted 1,000 well-wish cards for UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital patients. They also prepared toiletry kits for USO troops and supported Make-A-Wish families by creating folders, postcards, posters, and bracelets.

In Hawaiʻi, over 50 volunteers from Alaska Airlines and UniFi business partners participated in projects focused on environmental stewardship and cultural preservation. Activities included restoring ecosystems at Waikōloa Dry Forest Preserve and rebuilding stone walls at Loko Iʻa Pāʻaiau fishpond.

Alessandra F., Manager of Community Relations and Engagement at Alaska Airlines, emphasized their partnership with Fisher House Alaska to support military families. She stated that meeting these families made a significant impact on the team: “We couldn’t have asked for a better partner for our Week of CARE in Anchorage.”
