Ramirez Charity and Community Involvement Statement
June 8, 2020
Dear Ramirez Employees:
I want to let you know that I - and all of Ramirez leadership - stand with the Black Community. We are sickened by what happened to George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and the other recent victims of horrible racial violence the past few years and for many years before these events. We abhor the systemic racism and social injustices in America that Black and Brown people are subjected to. We stand with the peaceful protestors and agree that we all need to work together to make America a more just and fair country.
As a first generation American Puerto Rican, I understand the issues minorities today are facing. I have been fortunate to be a successful entrepreneur, but while growing our firm I have had to confront many cases of discrimination and inequality in the American business world. Fifty years ago I remember being told not to name the firm Ramirez, because "no-one would do business with a Hispanic firm." I understand the progress that has been made, but much more progress needs to be made to change the fundamental problems of racial and class inequities in housing, education, healthcare and our justice system. This is a critical moment in time and it is imperative we collectively take the steps to make change and move the needle.
There is no tolerance at Ramirez for racial discrimination of any type and, at a minimum, it is our responsibility and obligation to increase our outreach to the minority community in our charitable giving, internships, hiring, and professional development programs. To that end we will:
-
Make a commitment to continue to increase the diversity of the Ramirez workforce and the professional development of our minority employees;
-
Make a commitment to continue to grow our internship and education efforts for up and coming minority professionals;
-
Establish an internal dialog to discuss these issues and formulate solutions to make change;
-
Focus more of our charitable giving to organizations that work to change inequities in housing, education, healthcare and our justice system; and
-
Be supportive of our clients' efforts to change these inequities in America.
We will work together as a company on ideas for how to be most effective in making change. Thank you to all of you who make Ramirez a success and we welcome and appreciate your ideas.
More to come.
