Ribbon Day 2023
#ribbonday2023
Here are just a few examples:
Some of our Chennai employees visited the Hope Public Charitable Trust which helps house special needs children and differently abled people of all ages. The team spent time interacting with both children and adults and provided them with some meal packs, stationery items, drawing materials and fans to help manage the brutal heat.
Our Rome team helped La Nuova Arca maintain its thriving bee community by repairing their hives and ensuring continued honey production as well as the health of the bees that are so essential to our food supply.
And in the US, a group from our RTP campus volunteered with the Interfaith Food Shuttle to support their “Gardens for Everyone” project, aimed at helping low to moderate income households and communities build raised beds to grow food and help provide nutritious sustenance to those around them.
I couldn’t possibly list each and every one of the activities Ribbon employees participated in, but the range of activities and global nature is both impressive and inspiring. The list of organizations helped below is not quite exhaustive but gives a good overview.
As always, I want to thank the participating employees, the Engagement Committees who organized some of the larger initiatives, and the more than 44 charitable organizations we partnered with who do this work day in and day out – we are grateful for your service and your part in making the world a better place.
