United Mechanical Contributes Thousands of Dollars and Significant Volunteer Time to Muindi Foundation

(San Jose, CA) January 30, 2025 – United Mechanical, specializing in HVAC and plumbing systems design, construction, retrofit, repair, and 24/7 emergency service for commercial and industrial properties throughout Northern California, has established a strong partnership with San Jose-based Muindi Foundation, to give back to the local community.

The partnership began with a Back To School backpack drive sponsored by United Mechanical. Employees assembled and gave away 50 backpacks filled with school supplies at their headquarters, donating $1,400 for the effort. The company next sponsored a Winter Coat Drive, collecting 42 coats and jackets that the Foundation distributed at Roosevelt Park in downtown San Jose. Recipients also received hygiene kits, gloves, beanies and scarfs, and were served lunch and coffee.

In early January, United Mechanical donated $2,500 to the Foundation to accommodate more under resourced San Jose residents.

“The Muindi Foundation’s work in our headquarters city of San Jose is making a difference for people in need throughout our community,” noted Tina DelaCruz, director of HR and Corporate Communications for United Mechanical.

“We resonated with the organization’s mission to serve and advocate for low-income and underserved communities through support resources and mentorship,” added United Mechanical’s Senior Marketing Coordinator Micaela Lopez.

“Companies like United Mechanical are what keep our organization and programs afloat,” notes Muindi Foundation Co-Founder and Executive Director Serena Muindi. “We’re grateful for their ongoing partnership and support, and hope to continue and expand with them in 2025 and beyond.”
