On Tuesday, June 27, at the state-of-the-art UBS Arena at Belmont Park, UBS will host their Intern Day of Service at the home of the New York Islanders and incredible entertainment. At the event, UBS will provide tours of the Arena for over 250 interns to give them a behind the scenes look of UBS Arena. Following that, all the interns will receive a presentation and project as UBS executives will speak to all the interns about the importance of financial literacy.
Intern Day of Service is a tradition at UBS, giving junior colleagues an opportunity to make a difference in the local communities, meet one another and learn about UBS’ culture of service. During the event, interns will work together with Jersey Cares, one of UBS’ many local volunteer partners in the tri-state area, to assemble over 250 hygiene and snack kits for the Green Bronx Machine, which builds healthy, equitable, and resilient communities through inspired education and local food systems. Founded by life-long educator Stephen Ritz, GBM originally served as an after-school, alternative program for high school students, and has since evolved into a K-12+ model fully integrated into core education curriculum with project-based STEAM learning experiences, health, wellness, cooking, culinary, and garden programs, and workforce development connected to their urban farms.
The event will be held on Tuesday, June 27 at UBS Arena, 2400 Hempstead Turnpike, Elmont, NY 11003, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.
