Today, as we celebrate Juneteenth, we not only honor a pivotal moment in Texas history when enslaved African Americans got news of the Emancipation Proclamation but also embrace and reflect on our ongoing journey towards freedom, justice, and equality. At BakerRipley, our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion shines brightly as we continue to champion a world where everyone belongs and thrives. #Juneteenth #DiversityEquityInclusion #BakerRipley

Temperatures are rising in Houston, and we are all feeling the heat. Here are 3 Tips on how to stay cool this summer! 1. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Avoid sugary, caffeinated, or alcoholic beverages as they can lead to dehydration. 2. Wear Light Clothing: Choose lightweight, loose-fitting, and light-colored clothing. Natural fabrics like cotton and linen are preferable as they allow your skin to breathe. 3. Use Fans: Ceiling fans, box fans, or handheld fans can help circulate air and create a cooling effect. Place a bowl of ice in front of a fan for an extra cooling boost.
