This year has certainly brought with it an entirely new set of challenges. But, it has also brought with it some great improvements and accomplishments. One of these accomplishments was the approval and creation of ON Semiconductor’s newest Affinity Network Group dedicated to a mission that provides service and support to veterans, military members and those that support them.
DIRECTV is committed to supporting and serving our country’s veterans, and we show our dedication to the military community through charitable support, employee volunteerism and veterans hiring initiatives. To support our Armed Forces during National Military Appreciation Month (May) and Memorial Day, DIRECTV hosted events across the U.S. during the month of May. A few highlights from these events include:
In recognition of National Military Appreciation Month, my colleagues and I are participating in a virtual book drive for military families by donating to United Through Reading. United Through Reading is an organization that provides personalized videos of deployed parents reading stories to their children back home. Military children face big challenges, including frequent separation from their loved ones.
