DUBLIN, Calif., April 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- TriNet, a leading
provider of comprehensive human resources for small and medium-size
businesses (SMBs), today announced the launch of the TriNet
Foundation and its first donation recipient: Black Girl
Ventures.
The TriNet Foundation is a donor-advised fund (DAF) and a
central component of the Company's new Corporate Social
Responsibility program (CSR). The CSR program also includes TriNet
Volunteers, an internal program that provides TriNet employees with
the opportunity to lend their time and talents to meaningful
volunteer efforts, while helping entrepreneurial nonprofit
organizations achieve their missions through the spirt
of volunteerism.
"The TriNet Foundation and TriNet Volunteers allow our company
to further serve our employees and
organizations promoting entrepreneurism. TriNet employees
are passionate about helping businesses realize their ultimate
potential. Likewise, we are committed to helping our team use and
expand their own skills, while doing work that is important to
them," said TriNet President and CEO Burton
M. Goldfield. "Our new CSR allows us to go beyond TriNet's
client base to support more nonprofit organizations and the vital
role they play in the community, while providing a richer employee
experience for the people of TriNet."
Each quarter, the TriNet Foundation will make a
donation to a nonprofit organization that fosters positive
change, economic development and the growth of entrepreneurism
related to veterans, historically under-represented
businesses, or trade schools/entrepreneurial
education programs.
The TriNet Foundation's first donation recipient is Black
Girl Ventures, a unique nonprofit that creates access to capital
for Black and Brown woman-identifying entrepreneurs. "I
couldn't be prouder to support the amazing work of Black Girl
Ventures and the diverse, inspiring and incredible women they
serve," continued Goldfield. "Their mission to support small and
medium-size businesses closely aligns with ours, and I am excited
to see the results of their continued
efforts."
"This collaboration will provide our founders with access to
funding, corporate mentorship, and access to our incubator
platform, providing community, capital and capacity to grow their
businesses," said Shelly Bell,
Founder and CEO of Black Girl Ventures. "We are excited to be
partnered with TriNet to continue to bring access to capital,
capacity, and community for Black and Brown women-identifying
