Bengaluru, Karnataka, June 30, 2023 – Today, AbbVie employees in Bengaluru are participating in its eighth annual Week of Possibilities volunteering program, which unites employees around the world with a single purpose: to give back to local communities through volunteering. From June 26 to 30, thousands of AbbVie employees in more than 50 countries and territories will join forces with trusted nonprofit and community partners across the globe to complete hands-on projects to benefit local communities impacting tens of thousands of people.
“At AbbVie, we are committed to supporting our local community in Bengaluru through volunteering, and we’re excited to partner with Sanrakshan Rainbow home to make a positive impact for children,” said Suresh Pattathil, Managing Director & General Manager, Allergan, an AbbVie company. “During our Week of Possibilities, one of our most anticipated annual volunteer initiatives across the company, thousands of AbbVie employees are united around the world by serving their local communities.”
Employees in Bangalore refurbished and decorated the school premises of Sanrakshan Rainbow home by painting various artwork related to academic work and social messages. The beautifying of the walls has made the school clean and hygienic for students while turning it into vibrant and fresh for the students to rekindle in education.
In each Week of Possibilities, Bengaluru service projects are selected to ensure that AbbVie volunteer efforts align with the greatest needs of each local community. Local projects are designed and implemented in partnership with nonprofit partners close to the communities being served, including Sanrakshan Rainbow home.
AbbVie’s Week of Possibilities started in 2014 and is now a global tradition for the company. It is funded in part by the AbbVie Foundation and focuses on service projects in the local communities in which AbbVie employees live and work around the world.
