Over 250 employees from 12 portfolio companies participated in activities such as beach cleanups, assembling hygiene kits at the Simply Basic donation center, and supporting community gardens; speakers describe community impact, networking, and personal fulfillment from volunteering.
As part of our commitment to pledge 1%, Salesforce Ventures is excited to host Cloud Gives back, bringing over 250 employees from 12 of our portfolio companies together to volunteer and give back in our local community of San Francisco.
We're at Baker beach cleaning up the beach for the day.
We're here at the Simply Basic donation center putting.
Together hygiene kits for homeless folks here in San Francisco. This garden here is community gardens. Folks rent plots, we grow food to give away. It's so great to have all of these volunteers out from Salesforce. Provides vital people power to our work out here as well as financial support to our organization.
It's just awesome that Salesforce Ventures put in such an investment in the San Francisco community. Great chance to meet some new folks at other startups in the Bay Area.
I always love coming to volunteering events because it really makes me feel good at the end of the day.
Just a day to get out of the office, have some fun, network, and most importantly, think about someone other than yourself.
That's what today is about. Doing something for those that don't have the advantages that I have.
Crowd Gives Back is great. It's a beautiful day.
