Something extra from Morgan Stanley employees
Employees of Morgan Stanley”™s Fairfield office participated in Global Volunteer Month by volunteering with the American Red Cross. Each summer, employees in all of the financial services company”™s locations take part in a variety of activities to help local communities, from building playgrounds for underserved children to packaging food to support local food pantries and shelters. There was a coordinated effort in which employees packaged millions of meals worldwide to help fight childhood hunger and the Morgan Stanley Foundation donated $750,000 to Food Banks across the country.
The Fairfield staff of Morgan Stanley focused attention on the local Red Cross. After participating in blood drives and stuffing thousands of envelopes with disaster preparedness pamphlets for distribution, the employees felt they could do even more. They wasted no time stepping up with soap and sponges to wash a Red Cross disaster relief vehicle in the parking lot of the Brick Walk shopping area on Post Road, where Morgan Stanley”™s Fairfield office is located.
