TEMPE, Ariz. (Feb. 6, 2014) – Seventy-five employees of Sundt Construction, Inc. became new members of the Sundt Foundation during a recent membership drive. They join the hundreds of Sundt employees who are already members, donating money to the Foundation through weekly contributions. In addition, 72 existing members elected to increase their contributions to the Foundation during the membership drive. The drive results in an additional $25,000 that will be distributed to nonprofit organizations as quarterly grants. The Sundt Foundation gave more than $588,000 in grants in 2013 alone.
“These results are nothing short of spectacular,” said Dan Haag, Sundt’s Chief Administration Officer and Executive Director of the Sundt Foundation. “They speak for themselves about how our people continue to step up and help make a positive difference in our communities.”
