2020 has been a tough year with a dizzying amount of disheartening statistics coming at us daily.
What’s striking – and heartening – is despite the worldwide turmoil, philanthropic movements and charitable donations are on the rise. We’re seeing that evidenced right here at Riva.
Riva is a proud member of the Pledge 1% movement. We are dedicated to upholding the challenge to pledge 1% of our equity, product, and employee time to our communities.
Even with Covid-19 restrictions, our team has demonstrated an altruistic spirit – creating a selfless wave of giving that is felt throughout our community.
Both individually and working together with peers, we have donated our time and money to positively impact local organizations supporting those in need.
As an organization, Riva has encouraged our employees to donate one hour of their salary each month and is generously matching those donations.
Together, we have given over 146 hours, served 17 charitable organizations, and raised almost $19,000 over the past seven months to support those in need!
There are so many reasons to focus inwardly right now. Turning our attention to supporting others can be healing and empowering to both those giving and those receiving.
Please take the challenge along with our team to help those in need in your community.
