Tempe general contractor organizes 2,200 Thanksgiving meals for families in need

Posted

CHASSE Building Team, an employee-owned and operated general contractor headquartered in Tempe, kicked off the holiday season early by coming together for CHASSE-giving, an annual giving event where employees volunteer together to help the local community. 

This year, more than 80 local team members and partners took part, making the organization’s biggest success to date, a press release explained. Altogether, the team put together 2,200 holiday meal boxes for local families’ Thanksgiving celebrations. 

Each meal box contained pumpkin pies, a slew of traditional holiday side dishes and other surprises. In total, the team has assembled and donated approximately 7,000 meal boxes since founding the event in 2021.  

CHASSE Building Team’s Taylor Perkins said in the release that the group is proud to partner with school districts across the Valley to provide Thanksgiving boxes directly to families in need.

The boxes will be available at designated pickup points in partnership with the districts so that the boxes get into the right hands.

"As a construction company specializing in K-12 education, we’re passionate about building strong relationships within the education community,” Perkins said. 

Having partnered with over 50 school districts and education organizations, the group is driven to create meaningful programs that make a difference for students and their families, according to Perkins.

This marks CHASSE’s fourth year partnering with local school districts on this program. 

Aside from the Thanksgiving meals initiative, the general contractor has supported over 100 organizations throughout Arizona, contributing more than $4.5 million through fundraising, donations, and sponsorships, the release noted. 

Additionally, CHASSE collectively volunteers an average of 4,000 hours annually through both company-wide and individual efforts.

Perkins said that at CHASSE, they are focused on “literally” helping to build Arizona with sustainable and responsible projects, from schools and retail centers to nonprofit campuses and multi-family housing projects.

“This is also our home, and we want to build up the people and families across our community, too. We must maximize our ability to make a positive difference in the community we serve,” Perkins said.
