Employees from the Arrow Electronics office in Neu-Isenburg, Germany recently volunteered their time at local food bank Speisekammer. For several weeks, Arrow employees helped food bank staff transport, unpack and dispense food to the low-income families who utilize Speisekammer’s services. 

“We are very pleased with Arrow's contribution to the food bank,” said Herbert Hunkel, mayor of the city of Neu-Isenburg. “This is one of our most important social projects, and we thank the many volunteers. The team is looking forward to welcoming more helpers in the future.”

“We were able to gain a good insight into the great work of the volunteers, which impressed us a lot," said Ruth Beck, vice president of human resources for Arrow in EMEA. “There are already a lot of internal requests to participate in other social projects this year in Neu-Isenburg in coordination with the city.”

Arrow employees from around the world regularly work with local nonprofits, extending the company’s collaborative and innovative culture into the broader communities where they live and work.
