Making a Difference in Our Communities

We proudly support our community partners in making a difference across health and well-being, food and shelter, financial security, and environmental sustainability.

Health and Well-Being

Czar’s Promise

Employees took part in the Czar’s Promise Inspiring Hope Walk raising money to support pediatric and companion animal cancer research, and support companion animals and their families fighting cancer. At the event, the AprilAire team shared the importance of testing homes for radon gas – the #1 cause of lung cancer in nonsmokers.

AprilAire Healthy Air Fair

A fun-filled fair was held near our Madison, WI headquarters featuring a 5K walk / run, live entertainment, and interactive experiences—all to promote healthy living, raise funds for the American Lung Association, and showcase our commitment to Healthy Air and our community. The event raised over $20,000 for the American Lung Association.

The American Lung Association

AprilAire is a Proud to Partner of tThe American Lung Association and sponsor of the Oxygen Ball Mission Moment and the Fight Ffor Air Climb. We believe education, awareness, and prevention are critical—and through our partnership, we’re working to make Healthy Air and healthy lungs a reality for more people.

American Cancer Society

As a champion sponsor of the American Cancer Society Coaches vs. Cancer gala, the AprilAire team showed up in force to help the event raise nearly $800,000 to support individuals and families impacted by cancer across Wisconsin, including directly fueling groundbreaking cancer research at the UW Health Carbone Cancer Center.

Food, Shelter, and Financial Insecurity

St. Vincent de Paul –
Madison Centennial Celebration

As the presenting sponsor for the year-long celebration of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul’s first one hundred years of service in our community, AprilAire is proud to honor this partner. Since 2009, AprilAire has provided volunteers and financial support for SVdP’s food pantry, charitable pharmacy, and many other important local programs.

Habitat for Humanity –
Annual Home Frame Up

AprilAire employees took part in our second annual “Frame Up” for Habit for Humanity. Team members (many wearing their own toolbelts) worked together to build the frame for an entire home. The frame was transformed into a beautiful, healthy family home located only a few miles from the AprilAire Innovation Center.

Sleep in Heavenly Peace

In partnership with Sleep in Heavenly Peace, the AprilAire team delivered and constructed a record-breaking number of beds in the Madison, WI area to children who slept on the floor or a couch just the night before. Forty-seven kids now have a safe place to rest, dream, and believe in a better tomorrow.

Luke House

The Luke House mission is simple – to feed the hungry, no questions asked. Once a month a group of AprilAire volunteers serve lunch to Luke House guests. This involves serving food and drinks, setting up and clearing the dining room, as well as cleaning the pots, pans, and dishes in preparation for serving the next meal.

New Partner: Poynette Wisconsin Area Community Food Pantry

Located near our production campus in the Village Hall, the Poynette, Wisconsin Area Community Food Pantry is our newest community partner. The pantry relies on community support to provide non-perishable food items and personal care and cleaning supplies to residents in need. The pantry serves 80 to 100 families each month.

FairShare CSA Coalition
Bike/Bus the Barns

AprilAire again sponsored the FairShare CSA Bike/Bus the Barns fundraising event. A group of AprilAire employees joined the community bike or bus ride through the scenic hillside to pay tribute to local farmers and raise support for the Partner Shares Program to support providing area low-income households with access to farm-fresh, healthy vegetables.

Making a Difference During the Holidays

2025 was a holiday to remember for a special family. Wish list items were gathered by the AprilAire team and a new, bare apartment was turned into a warm, comfortable home. They also enjoyed holiday decorating, leaving yummy treats and gifts, and arranging to have the tires replaced on the family car!

Toys for Tots

Employees across the business generously donated 135 gifts to Toys for Tots for the annual holiday drive. In the holiday spirit, a group brought the donated items to Toys for Tots and then organized the donation in their warehouse so everything was ready to go for magical holiday gift giving.

Education

Annual Back-to-School Donation Drive

Employees, vendors, and AprilAire contributed the necessities for a great start to the school year for students of the Westside Elementary School in Sun Prairie, WI. The team stuffed 60 backpacks, and provided teacher requested classroom supplies for a successful year. We appreciate the contributions of local partners QTI, Kramer Madison, and Complete Office.

Madison Public Library Foundation

AprilAire again supported the Madison Public Library Foundation as a sponsor of its Ex Libris fundraiser. Proceeds from this well-attended event advance the library’s mission to promote literacy, encourage curiosity, and strengthen the learning community. AprilAire expanded its support by sponsoring the annual Lunch for Libraries event, which focuses on youth literacy initiatives.
