No matter how small your action, Mandela Day is about changing the world for the better. And at R&A, we couldn’t support this mentality more!
Our company’s culture is founded on many principles, but at the core, each team member has a passion for philanthropy. So, when it comes to finding ways to make our community a better place, we had to chime in with a couple of our favorites.
Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore is one group that is near and dear to the R&A family’s heart. Since 1981, this organization has provided food for hungry people throughout Southeastern Virginia and on the Eastern Shore. And every few months, we find ways to either donate or volunteer to support its mission. You should, too!
Giving back to local animals is also an area we like to contribute. Whether it’s through the SPCA, PETA or other animal shelters, our furry parents make it a point to support these organizations through a mixture of efforts.
We also love participating in events such as the St. Jude Walk/Run to End Childhood Cancer, which we’ve supported for seven years! Advocates from across the nation come together to raise money for the kids of St. Jude, where families never receive a bill for anything. You can join a team, register one or donate in support of the Hampton Roads event.
If you haven’t found the right fit, be sure to visit the VOLUNTEER Hampton Roads website to locate other volunteer opportunities in this area. Remember, even the smallest gesture can go a long way in helping someone else. We thank you for your help in making Hampton Roads a better place and leave you with this one final thought:
TAKE ACTION. INSPIRE CHANGE. MAKE EVERY DAY A MANDELA DAY.
