On June 17, 10 Riffyn employees (who had all been fully vaccinated) volunteered at the Alameda County Community Food Bank. Not only was volunteering at the food bank a great way to give back to our community, it was also the first time we’ve gathered in person since March 2020. On our day of service at the food bank, we were also thrilled to learn that the current Administration declared Juneteenth an official Federal holiday. How fitting!
Riffyn employees have vowed to take action to tangibly support equity and justice. Learn about new company holidays, the Distinguished Scientist Lecture Series, and an outside-the-box employee training program that will keep us promoting diversity for years to come.
In November, we partnered with the Alameda Food Bank, a local non-profit that has been providing food to Alameda residents in need for over 40 years. Together, Riffyn employees raised $3408.83 (over our $3000 goal!) for the food bank. And this month, we partnered with CityTeam Oakland, collecting school supplies, toys, clothing, and $1000 worth of gift cards for two local families.
