SYRACUSE -- Prudential employees lent a hand to the Boys and Girls Club of Syracuse as part of the company's Global Volunteer Day on Saturday.

About thirty employees and Prudential family members helped to spruce up the club by cleaning and painting the walls. This is one of hundreds of company volunteer projects happening Saturday. More than 20,000 people in nearly a dozen countries also volunteered their time Saturday for Prudential and gave back to their local communities.
