Bike Anywhere Day

Longfellow proudly hosts a sponsored pitstop for bicyclists during the SANDAG’s Bike Anywhere Day. In 2023, riders stopped at our SOVA Science District for shirts, snacks, water bottles, and support as they took part in the annual event. Organized by the San Diego Association of Governments, the event reminds San Diegans to ride to work, school or the beach on 1,800 miles of bikeways connecting the San Diego region.

Drexel University Summer Program

Longfellow is a proud support both financially and through mentorship of Drexel University’s Summer Program that introduces high school students of color throughout the Philadelphia region to a wide variety of career options in commercial real estate.

“The NAIOP summer program that Drexel University hosted has pushed me to my full potential, and without it, I wouldn’t be the person I am today,” one former student said. “The program taught me how to reason and problem solve in different ways. It also exposed me to future jobs I had never considered before, and connections that are beyond powerful.”

Cristo Rey High School

Cristo Rey High School Students in Durham, North Carolina, were able to tour Longfellow properties and meet with our executive teams, helping introduce students to the commercial real estate and life science industries. Throughout our portfolio, public and charter schools, as well as various young professional groups are gaining this access that will help demystify these industries and make them more accessible to learners from a wider variety of backgrounds and experiences.
