In Italy, Avio Aero employees supported food distribution initiatives, prepared meals, and assisted charitable markets serving local communities. In the United Kingdom, volunteers worked with foodbanks to help provide essential supplies for families during school holidays and partnered with veteran support organizations to improve community spaces.

Employees also contributed to projects that enhanced outdoor environments for learning, recreation, and wellbeing, helping create spaces that can be enjoyed by local families, students, and community members for years to come.

Global Volunteer Week reflects GE Aerospace's commitment to supporting the communities where employees live and work, while strengthening partnerships with local organizations that make a meaningful difference across Europe.

With the launch of the GE Aerospace Foundation in 2024, we committed an additional $20 million to Next Engineers through 2030. This funding will expand it to four new cities, including Warsaw, Poland, where the program was launched early 2025. The expansion into Europe signifies our dedication to fostering engineering talent and innovation across the continent.

We are proud to support those who have served and their families, standing ready to provide assistance through GE Aerospace and GE Aerospace Foundation efforts. At the Royal International Air Tattoo in July 2024, UK, GE Aerospace reaffirmed its commitment to veteran support with a donation to the Forces Employment Charity.

Additionally, we proudly re-signed the UK Armed Forces Covenant, reinforcing our dedication to creating career opportunities for veterans. We know what it means to serve one’s country and are proud to be able to employ veterans across our workforce.
