Riverbed Community Connect is a volunteer community service initiative that allows the company to support dozens of charities around the world.
The program offers Riverbed employees up to five days of paid leave throughout the year to carry out volunteer activities at non-profit organizations in countries around the world, with the aim of making a real contribution and creating a meaningful connection in the communities where employees live and work, globally.
An essential part of the program is the Riverbed Community Connect Week, an annual community service event that allows you to support dozens of charities by providing around 2,000 hours of volunteer work, addressing important issues such as the fight against hunger, sustainability and support for the neediest communities.
Riverbed Community Connect supports volunteerism
Riverbed Community Connect Week took place recently, featuring Riverbed employees participating in volunteer efforts in more than 10 major cities around the world, as well as smaller group projects in dozens of other cities.
During Community Connect Week, Riverbed actively supported team projects in the US, UK, Romania, Germany, Bangalore and Singapore. Additionally, hundreds of employees from branch offices or working from home provided support on local and remote projects.
