In July, 2014, Raben Group started a Volunteer Program for employees, during which all employees were able to present and share their voluntary projects. In October the employees in Latvia combined the project’s idea with an ongoing in Latvia social action “Week of Doing Good Things”.
During that week our Employees were able to share their kindness with others. They decided to spend some time with animals that live in an animal shelter “Ulebele”. Our Employees were ready to go for a walk with a dog and to help in a daily work at the animal shelter. Raben Latvia’s Employees were glad to interact with the staff of the animal care workers, to hear when and how this house was set up, to know how many animals live here. Money gained for this project were given to buy food for animals, medicines, toys, blankets and other necessary things for them. The workers of the animal shelter are always glad that volunteers come to them led by the idea of showing love and warmth to destitute animals.Raben’s Employees are grateful for opportunities to participate in similar projects. “It is so big-hearted to do good things and help others. The evidence of that were happy animals and grateful staff of the animal shelter. We hope we will infect our colleagues with our kindness and encourage them to do good things to others. After all, being good doesn’t cost a thing! –Raben Latvia’s Employees say.We just need a little bit of care and kindness and you will see that you will give happiness to others and become happier and discover joy in your life.
