IN THE COMMUNITY
Arden believes corporate involvement within the community is essential. Arden empowers our employees by organizing events that strive to enrich and support our local communities.
CURRENT INITIATIVES:
Winter Food Drive
City Harvest (http://cityharvest.org/about/) will be distributing approximately 1 million pounds of food to the hungry in all five boroughs of New York City this winter. Arden colleagues were happy to participate by collecting over 340 pounds of nutritious food for the effort.
PAST INITIATIVES:
22nd Annual New York Cares Coat Drive
90% of homeless adults and children need a new, warm coat each winter because they have no place to keep one over the summer months. Arden employees donated their lightly used or new winter coats through New York Cares.
