I From a global pandemic, to an economic shutdown and reopening, and a social reckoning with race and justice, 2020 challenged the foundational elements of many organizations. At Brandywine, we leaned into our bedrock—the core values we’ve lived out for over 25 years by prioritizing people, relationships and communities. Our teams rose to the occasion, taking swift action to cover the danger side, and then shifting focus forward to the opportunities. Early on, as the pandemic unfolded, we quickly implemented business-continuity plans and activated a crisis response team to protect the health and safety of our employees, tenants, and stakeholders. Our operational model allowed us to keep 100% of our buildings open while we made further investments in on-site health and safety measures. We maintained strong levels of rent collection while working collaboratively with our tenants on rent relief solutions where necessary. We made great efforts to be true workplace partners, providing our tenants with custom Return to the Workplace plans and a comprehensive Tenant Resource Toolkit. We remained committed to our brand promise and leveraged this period of uncertainty to deepen our relationships.
