The ARA Foundation Charity Auction will be held online beginning Jan. 13, culminating in the announcement of the winner during the ARA Show in Las Vegas. This marks the seventh year Hitachi Global Air Power has donated a Sullair portable compressor to the ARA Foundation auction, with past designs including a pink compressor for breast cancer awareness, a "heart of gold" design for the American Heart Association, and a Mardi Grasthemed compressor supporting the Alzheimer's Association.

To date, Hitachi Global Air Power's contributions have raised over $120,000 for the ARA Foundation Auction and an additional $40,000 for outside charities.

Supporting Wounded Warrior Project

The donated WWP-themed Sullair Series 185 air compressor features hand-written messages of support and gratitude from Hitachi Global Air Power employees, added during a special signing event held at the company's manufacturing facility on Jan. 15. Additionally, Hitachi Global Air Power will present a $10,000 contribution to WWP in February 2025.

The donation will support the organization's mission to provide life-changing programs and services in mental health, career counseling, and long-term rehabilitative care for veterans.

"The support we receive from Hitachi Global Air Power helps Wounded Warrior Project honor and empower warriors in their communities," said Brea Kratzert Todd, vice president of business development of WWP.
