Alcami in Action: 2016 in Review

AlcamiInAction.pngAlcami is proud to have an established Foundations Team comprised of cross-functional team members from every site in our company. Committed to strengthening partnerships within our local communities, the team assesses and makes decisions about community outreach activities, charitable and nonprofit opportunities, sponsorships, and memberships. The team’s overall mission is to determine how Alcami and its employees can best connect with the communities in which they live and work. Combining company resources with their own, the team supports charitable and community organizations that advance the health industry, as well as STEM, economic, environmental and other social initiatives that align with the company’s mission and values. In addition to direct financial contributions, employees seek to make a difference in each of the communities in which we do business through strong volunteer partnerships. We look forward to our continued involvement in our local communities in 2017, but first let's revisit some highlights from 2016:


Work on Wilmington

in historic downtown Wilmington or building outdoor classrooms. Alcami team members joined the efforts to give back to the city.

 

 Durham Rescue Mission

All of the proceeds from the event went to the Durham Crisis Rescue Mission in Durham, NC. The Durham Rescue Mission is one of the oldest and largest long-term homeless shelters in the area, providing food, clothing, permanent supportive housing, vocational training, job placement, education, accountability and much more to broken men, women and children in Durham, Chapel Hill and Raleigh.

Employee Engagement Day at Students 2 Science

Alcami is pleased to have participated in and provided resources, funding and volunteers to Students 2 Science (S2S), Inc. S2S is an innovative Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education organization that introduces elementary, middle and high school students from the states of New Jersey and Pennsylvania to real-world science and scientists at its professional laboratory in East Hanover, NJ and through its virtual lab program.

Over 20 volunteers from Alcami sites across the United States participated in the first Pharma Day of the year, including Ted Dolan, Alcami COO; Syed Husain, Alcami CCO; and Brian Dillion, Alcami VP of Quality & Regulatory Affairs. Volunteers and full time staff from S2S joined eleventh and twelfth graders from High Tech High School in Middletown, NJ. Each volunteer shared their background and spoke about their involvement with science growing up. The volunteers all had scientific educations and now play different roles within the pharmaceutical industry: proof that a science degree can lead to a variety of career opportunities.

United Way

In October, Alcami embarked on its first company-wide giving campaigns with United Way. Thanks to the support of our generous employees and hard work from our site ambassadors, the campaigns were overwhelming successes. Combined, Alcami's sites raised approximately $41,000 USD with over 25 percent employee participation - an incredible start to joint philanthropic efforts! Through traditional fundraising, collaborative activities, and volunteering efforts, Alcami made a real difference in the lives of thousands.
