Pucks for Autism Tournament

Pucks for Autism Tournament

This past weekend, 72 teams competed in the 8th Annual Pucks for Autism Hockey Tournament. These teams had a combined goal to raise money and bring awareness to autism. The tournament raised a staggering $126,000 for charity. Team Aldridge raised $8,400 becoming the Top Donating Team and won the chance to play in a charity game at the United Center before a Blackhawks game this 2023/2024 season.

Greenhouse Scholars: Sanah Update

For the past several years, Aldridge has supported the Greenhouse Scholar Program, most recently sponsoring Sanah Ahmed. A student of Cornell University's class of 2023, she is working to find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes, a cause that is near and dear to the Aldridge family. She was introduced to the disease at the age of 14 when her father’s diabetes became difficult to manage.

A team of 10 Aldridge employees will be traveling to Bolivia, located in Central South America, late this summer for our third year working with Bridges to Prosperity. This team will help build a footbridge that provides access to critical resources like healthcare, education, and employment and creates a long term positive impact on a local community.
