Thunder Up with AF!
American Fidelity and our Colleagues are showing the Thunder spirit! We proudly partner with our Oklahoma City Thunder to bring literacy programs to youth across the state, and our Colleagues love showing support for the NBA team!
Supporting the Thunder’s literacy programs allows us to give back in the area where we do the most business – education.
We sponsor the Rolling Thunder Book Bus, Read to Achieve Reading Timeouts, Thunder Teacher of the Game and the Reading Challenge.
- Rolling Thunder Book Bus: The Books Bus visits schools, day cares and more to get free books in the hands of our youth. Since its debut in 2007, more than 233,000 books have been distributed from the bus.
- Read to Achieve Reading Timeouts: During the NBA season, representatives from the Thunder take a “timeout” to read books to students. Each student in attendance also receives a free copy of the book.
- Thunder Teacher of the Game: During the regular season, one teacher is recognized on court at each home game as the Teacher of the Game for their outstanding efforts in the classroom.
- Reading Challenge: The Thunder promotes reading with three reading challenges each season. This season 7,050 students read more than 2.8 million minutes throughout the challenges.
We can’t forget our Colleagues’ love for the OKC Thunder during this playoff run! Recently we had the Thunder Merch Bus visit our Home Office so Colleagues could stock up on gear, and throughout the playoffs we’re encouraging Colleagues to sport their Thunder gear on gamedays. We’re also excited to show our support outside our walls with our brand-new Thunder banner on our parking garage.
Let’s go Thunder!
