That event was supppppppper cool - there was one earlier in the year that I couldn't attend, but I'm glad I made this one - this is a great event to really "market" to members of the Armis team for those that don't have a lot of availability to get out there and volunteer.
Highly recommend for donation management and volunteering! Since moving to remote/hybrid work, organizing volunteering was a challenge, and I’m so glad we partnered with Percent Pledge to keep it thriving.

It was nice to see my team outside of work, it was a great bonding experience. We served at a local shelter and I'll remember it forever!
Naturally, employees loved giving back and felt grateful for the opportunity. The fact that the employees were doing this together with their employer really brought a deep sense of fulfillment that we felt throughout the day. It was simply incredible!

I loved this volunteer event because my team was able to focus on creating something special for a group in need and take a break from the normalcy of our day to be truly present! Together We Rise was a great fit.
I love that Candid is helping us give back. It's something I have always wanted to do.
I really love how easy this was, but also that by adding this information I learned about folks I didn't know about - which was amazing.
It has a great UI. Has most of the charities one would want to donate to and it is easy to use.
It was an absolute pleasure to partner with Percent Pledge for our Bike Build Team Event. Percent Pledge took care of the logistics of the event right down to giving bikes to the children. It was such an incredible experience.

It was easy for me to track how much I've donated and see how much my company is willing to match. It was also great to be able to donate to organizations directly from the site instead of having to go to other websites to donate.
We created Black History Month educational materials. This experience was filled with so much learning, community, and joy. Truly so fulfilling to be able to meaningfully give back and contribute to such an important topic for such an amazing organization! It was so amazing to also learn more about Black History!
This has been an asbolutely phenomenal experience. I'm always inspired to see young leaders stepping up and sharing their voice and vision with adults. This was a great way to hear both perspectives!
My teammates and I identified animals (mostly red-headed woodpeckers) on the Woodpecker Captivity Cam. We had a great time and had great partners. Everyone got really excited about finding different animals and getting fun screengrabs.

The experience was great. I was a little scared I wouldn't be able to contribute much in the time allowed, mostly afraid I couldn't figure out how to make the product. Appreciate the ease of it and that additional time after the meeting is allowed. Also, I suspect much of the value is that the material was educational to myself and other volunteers. I learned a great deal just in being given the list of great figures in black history. I now have a new SciFi author to read! I think this is a great platform and partner organization. Thank you for the wonderful and critically important work you do!
Thank you for giving us the opportunity us to volunteer/donate.
