As the executive sponsor of Commvault’s Veterans Employee Resource Group (VALOR ERG) and U.S. Navy Veteran, I wanted to share my perspective on the significance of Veterans Day and Remembrance Day.
Today, November 11, is Veterans Day and Remembrance Day, memorial days tied to Armistice Day, which marked the end of World War I. This day honors both living and lost Veterans who have served their country. Here at Commvault, we’re proud to recognize the sacrifices made by Veterans and their families, and remain humbled by their selflessness and courage.
We are fortunate to have Veterans among us in our global Vaulter community, and as a Veteran, I know firsthand how our shared experiences in service place a high value on teamwork and informed and inspiring leadership. We draw on these values as we share traditions and memories, and build new relationships.
Each year, our VALOR ERG hosts an Honor Hour virtual event to reflect on the sacrifices Veterans have made for our freedoms. These conversations provide our Vaulters with an open dialogue to express what this day means to them personally, acknowledge and remember our histories, reflect on our own experiences with Veterans, and show our gratitude.
And as part of our Commvault Cares Quarter of Caring initiative, our VALOR ERG is partnering with the Tunnel to Towers Foundation to support all those who have served, as well as their families, especially in the upcoming holiday season. Seeing all the incredible support across our company makes me so proud to be a part of Commvault.
I encourage you to take a moment today to reflect on and honor the dedication and resilience of all Veterans who have served their country. Thank you to our Veterans and their families for the sacrifice you have made to keep us all free and safe.
