GREENWOOD, Ind.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--19 employees from Arbonne International’s Greenwood, Indiana distribution center volunteered at Strides to Success Equine-assisted Services Center in Plainfield on April 14, the company’s Global Day of Caring. Arbonne employees around the world participate in this annual event, giving back in their communities.
The team spent the day helping with spring cleaning ahead of Stride’s busy season. Upon arrival, the volunteers were greeted by Bear, the therapy dog, who joined them for an orientation session before heading out to help with spring cleaning at the 10,000 square foot facility, a former dairy farm.
“Our hardworking group of volunteers had a wonderful time,” said Stacia Pence, Human Resources Generalist at Arbonne. “In addition to spending time outdoors together, our team loved making a difference in the community. Core to our values, service is an important part of sustainable healthy living.”
In addition to enjoying the opportunity to support Strides, employees loved seeing the best sort of dog and pony show (aka Bear and several of the nonprofit’s equine denizens) and working outdoors on a beautiful day. The group cleaned and organized the classroom, reinvigorated flower beds, cleared two walkways and updated them with fresh timbers and mulch.
“Spring is Strides’ busiest time of year. We loved contributing to their mission and helping them get ready…and of course meeting the horses!” added Pence.
