The 🌈 RG Rainbow Walk 🌈 has become an annual tradition at Reward Gateway, and we couldn’t be more excited about its evolution.
In years past, we’ve asked participants to sport colors of the rainbow, go out for a stroll (or a promenade if you’re fancy), and post photos on our network’s Slack channel in solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community. We also encouraged employees to donate to LGBTQIA+ charities of their choice, and RG matched all donations.
This year, we are taking the RG Rainbow Walk to the next level! 💪
We’ll be doing a MoveSpring Challenge to help us celebrate Pride – stepping together in a group target fundraiser for four charities across our respective geos:
- The Pride Foundation (AUS)
- Single Step (BG)
- Stonewall Foundation (UK)
- Brave Space Alliance (US)
We’ll also be participating in a group race as we define what each letter of the LGBTQIA+ acronym means at various milestones. In addition, we’ll be posting educational and inspirational content in the app. & Finally, we’ll be encouraging employees to share tips and encouragement in the challenge group chat.
Our initial goal is to hit 2 million steps (roughly 1,000 miles / 1,600 kilometers) during June. But that’s not all… The Top 10 Rainbow Racers (who cover the most distance) will be entered into a raffle for a prize from an LGBTQIA+ owned business, and we’ll draw three lucky winners.
Follow along for more RG Pride celebrations and the results of this year's Rainbow Walk 2.0.
