Our company was founded on the idea of helping others, and giving back to our community is a big part of who we are. Between American Fidelity and the American Fidelity Foundation, we support hundreds of organizations in the communities where we do business. 

PEOPLE magazine and Great Place to Work selected American Fidelity as one of their 2021 Companies that Care. To celebrate, Colleagues within the company voted for five organizations to receive $5,000 donations each.

Our colleagues also have plenty of opportunities to get involved, and our Home Office colleagues each receive 16 hours of paid volunteer time every year. We also have a volunteer grant program and board service incentive to encourage even more community involvement. 

Annually, we have campaigns for the Allied Arts and United Way, plus a food drive for the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma and a school supply drive. We partner with a local school where our colleagues can tutor once a week – and don’t even have to use their paid volunteer time!

Nationally, our company supports a variety of organizations dedicated to improving their communities. For example, colleagues in our Michigan office recently participated in a Random Acts of Kindness challenge to complete 60 good deeds in a set time frame. The challenge resulted in the team members continuing to look for ways they could help others. Other teams have hosted campaigns for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and local charities in their states. 

We also work hard to support the causes that are important to our colleagues. In addition to our corporate giving, the American Fidelity Foundation matches more than $90,000 in donations made by colleagues to organizations they support. Each year, colleagues nominate their favorite non-profit organizations to receive proceeds from our monthly charity day designation.
