ASHEVILLE, N.C., Dec. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aeroflow Health, a pioneering healthcare company that leverages cutting-edge technology to support the delivery of medical products and services, today announced its Giving Tuesday donation of $25,000, distributed across five organizations based in Western North Carolina. The nonprofits were selected based on their emphasis to provide equitable access to care within the Western NC region and communities such as Asheville, where Aeroflow was founded 23 years ago and maintains its presence as one of the largest employers in the state.

“Our mission is centered around the commitment to our customers, coworkers, and community to provide and enhance the best care possible. Nurturing community engagement with these nonprofits allows us all to improve health literacy, provide empathy for compassionate and patient-centered care, maintain ethical excellence, and eliminate disparities to ensure healthcare access to all,” said Casey Hite, CEO of Aeroflow Health. “Following Hurricane Helene’s impact in our area, we’re eager to support these organizations as they continue to work tirelessly to improve the health outcomes in Asheville and the surrounding area.”
