Community Outreach
Ryan is a proud member of the communities in which we live and work. Our team engages in community outreach activities throughout the year, from our annual firmwide RyanSHARES Day to local food and clothing drives. We take pride in serving our friends and neighbors in unique and meaningful ways. Ryan offers employees 16 hours per year of paid time off to volunteer in their communities and gift matching to approved organizations.
In addition to volunteer hours, Ryan and our team members are generous with monetary and in-kind donations. The Ryan Foundation was established in 2011 to support education, health and wellness, and poverty and disaster relief causes that are near and dear to the hearts of our team members. The Ryan Foundation also houses our Employee Financial Assistance Program, through which Ryan team members can help take care of our own in times of personal hardship.
