Programming example

Earlier this week, our Gileados Employee Resource Group (ERG) brought the spirit of Cinco de Mayo to life at Gilead Sciences with a vibrant celebration honoring Latine heritage, resilience, and culture.The event featured a historical overview of Cinco de Mayo, followed by an inspiring employee panel where colleagues shared personal reflections and what the day means to them. Their stories and journeys were a reminder of the richness within our community and the powerful narratives that collectively shape and strengthen our organization.We were also treated a live mariachi band and mercado with local community partners and small businesses—and of course, paletas!Thank you to all our Gileados ERG leaders who made this celebration so meaningful—and for continuing to foster inclusion and belonging every day.hashtag#CincoDeMayo hashtag#CreatingPossible hashtag#Inclusion
