Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities Honors Hunton Andrews Kurth Partner as Humanitarian
October 7, 2021
Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP congratulates partner, Rudene Mercer Haynes, on her Humanitarian Award from the Richmond Chapter of the Virginia Center of Inclusive Communities. The award is presented to those individuals who have demonstrated a personal commitment to the promotion of respect and understanding among people of diverse racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds.
Based in Richmond, Haynes co-leads the firm’s servicer advance financing practice and serves as firm-wide hiring partner, where she is committed to expanding the pipeline of diverse candidates. She is also active in the community with her foundational involvement in “Facts & Faith Fridays”, a series of calls with members of the black faith community to provide information on COVID-19, transmission, vaccination and improving outcomes and which was cited by The White House as a model of reducing health disparities.
Haynes and the additional Humanitarian Award recipients will be honored at the 59th annual Richmond Humanitarian Awards Presentation on October 25, 2021.
