DENSO Spirit Spotlight: FCA Sales Team Helps the Heroes

The FCA Sales team recently showed us the importance of collaboration and teamwork – a key element of DENSO Spirit.

Some of us may be feeling some semblance of “normal” with the auto industry restarting and with the implementation of our phased Return-to-Work protocol, but the fact of the matter is that COVID-19 is still very real. While we’ve increased production across North America, we continue to prioritize the safety of our associates, customers and communities and look for ways to take care of each other.

The FCA Sales team worked together on several wonderful community projects to help support local health care workers:

• Organized a food drive at the University of Michigan for Food Gathers, a food bank that works with 200 local nonprofits in southeast Michigan.

• Donated and collected donations from family and friends to cater over 300 lunches for nurses and doctors at U of M, Beaumont, Henry Ford and Henry Ford Wyandotte Hospitals.

• Assembled care boxes for hospital staff.
• Created colorful chalk art in front of hospitals to brighten workers long and challenging days as they fight the virus.

“I’m so proud of the team for taking the initiative during a really trying and challenging time to do something so positive for the community. So many people have asked how they can get involved and help,” said Derek Sneideraitis, Sr. Sales Manager, DENSO. “While DENSO has stepped up to help in big ways, the efforts of our associates are a true showing of DENSO Spirit. Seeing our team come together like this has given me a lot of hope for our future.”
