At Nickle Electrical Companies, we know that supporting our people is just as important as the work we do. That’s exactly where our Sunshine Committee comes in, a team dedicated to strengthening connections within our company while making a positive difference beyond our job sites.
This committee is guided by a simple but powerful purpose: to support our team’s morale, recognize the moments that matter, and give back to our communities. In 2026, they’re bringing that goal to life through 12 Acts of Kindness, a year-long campaign focused on giving back, spreading joy, and making a difference.
Let’s dive into what they do, who they are, and what’s to come.
What is Nickle’s Sunshine Committee?
At its core, the Sunshine Committee exists to make life a little brighter, both within our company and beyond it.
“The Sunshine Committee’s mission is to support the morale and well-being of the employees of Nickle Electrical Companies while simultaneously establishing community rapport.“
They focus on organizing acts of kindness throughout the year that support our employees, local organizations, community causes, and individuals in need. These efforts may include community outreach, donations, volunteer opportunities, or simple gestures of appreciation.
Work is more than just completing tasks; it’s about being part of a team where people feel seen, supported, and appreciated through every high and low. Whether it’s through a friendly gesture, a heartfelt celebration, or an act of service, the Sunshine Committee is here to uplift, connect, and support the people around us.
The People Behind the Committee
Made up of employees from across Nickle Electrical, the Sunshine Committee represents our shared commitment to teamwork, compassion, and service. Behind every act of kindness is a dedicated group of employees who make it happen, serving as the driving force behind the moments that bring people together and extend Nickle’s impact beyond the workplace. Together, they identify meaningful opportunities where time and resources can make a difference, both internally and within the community.
In 2026, the Sunshine Committee includes Samantha Windle, Taylor Burden, Lisa Houston, Jenny Yoder, Jen Thompson, Kevin Gates, Zoey Romano, Erika Newton, Maria Trujillo Hernandez, Kelly Arentzen, and Shelby Stansell.
12 Acts of Kindness – A Year of Giving Back
This year, the Sunshine Committee is introducing an initiative centered on impact and connection: 12 Acts of Kindness. Each month, the committee will focus on one act of kindness that supports a local organization, a community cause, or initiatives within our company. These monthly acts allow us to stay engaged year-round while creating consistent opportunities for involvement and impact.
Updates, photos, and reflections will be shared along the way to highlight the collective effort behind each act and celebrate the difference being made together.
Through the Sunshine Committee and their 12 Acts of Kindness, Nickle Electrical remains committed to building stronger communities, supporting those in need, and fostering a culture rooted in care, connection, and giving back.
