From Erik at RBC Hinton: The RBC Day of Service Reward supports and recognizes teams of employees who respond to a one-time or short-term community need on their own time. Employees in groups of 3 or more, commit a minimum of 3 hours to a project or event for a charity of their choice. In 2015 Hinton RBC completed 5 events and donated $5,000. In 2016 we have completed 7 events, have 3 more to do, and will have donated a total of $10,000. Every single employee from the branch has volunteered their time to at least one event with most volunteering at several.
