Last week, we hosted a firmwide DEI event and had the opportunity to hear from Tina Payne who shared why she is passionate about celebrating Black History Month. Thanks also to Dan Chung, Amy Y. Zhang, CFA, and Christie Tully for sharing insights and stories about Alger’s history of diversity and support for charities focused on addressing inequality and social justice. We also supported Happy Cork, a Brooklyn-based Black/women-owned business that provided us with wines produced by top Black and minority winemakers, as well as Vanessa’s Dumpling House, an NYC-based women-owned business.
