This Veterans Day and Remembrance Day, we are taking time to honor and thank all who served. We are grateful for our associates who are Veterans and for the incredible contributions they make across the entire AEO community. Our Veteran & Military Employee Resource Group (VMERG) champions their service, not just today, but all year long. To commemorate this day - and the anniversary of the U.S. Army, Navy and Marine Corps - associates participated in a 250 Mile Salute, reflecting on the rich history of the military and raising funds in support of Homes for our Troops. Together, we are proud to give back and celebrate our Veterans! ❤️🤍💙

Happy Diwali! 🪔 This week, AEO associates across Pittsburgh and New York embraced the spirit of the Hindu festival of lights and welcomed new beginnings. Hosted by our Technology team and AAPI Connection, the festivities were a true reflection of joy, unity and heritage. Together, we commemorated the triumph of good over evil with traditional food, vibrant fashion and spirited dancing. Each year, Diwali reminds us of the power of connection and the importance of celebrating the people that make our AEO community shine bright.🕯️✨

Happy Halloween from AEO! 🎃✨ The New York Design Office embraced the spooky season spirit at our annual Great Pumpkin Carving Contest. The event highlighted our associates' creativity and collaboration, bringing a festive energy to the workplace that reflects the passion and innovation behind everything we do.

Time flies when you’re giving back! 💚 This October marks the three year anniversary of the Aerie Real Foundation and our partnership with PERIOD., a nonprofit striving to eradicate period poverty and stigma. To celebrate this milestone, hundreds of corporate and field associates across Pittsburgh, New York and Mexico City joined forces with the organization to support Period Action Day - packing more than 14,000 kits and providing 250,000 supplies for those in need. Together, we’re helping PERIOD. reach its goal to deliver 1 million menstrual products and drive awareness for an incredibly important cause.

As Hispanic Heritage Month has come to a close, we’re reflecting on the many ways our associates came together to celebrate the history, impact and influence of Hispanic and Latine culture. Throughout the month, teams across AEO participated in volunteer events, connected with local nonprofits, culminating with associate-led AEO Juntos’ first networking event held at our Pittsburgh campus - creating meaningful opportunities to learn, engage and celebrate together. These moments remind us of the power of community and connection, and how our associates continue to shape a culture at AEO where everyone is seen, heard and valued.
