On Tuesday, over 700 Goldman Sachs employees left their desks to enjoy the sunshine, play some ball, and raise $150,000 for the New York City-based non-profit and charter school Dream.

Dream hosts kids at after-school and summer programs that focus on physical wellness. Kids connected to Dream served as referees during the Goldman Sachs games, which took place at the Battery Park City Ballfields in Manhattan.

"This is a great event all around, both for the kids from Dream, and for the people at [Goldman Sachs] to get exposure to Dream while having a blast," Levine said. "To have 700 employees take time out of their work days and raise $150,000 for this organization is something we're very proud of."
