“For more than 20 years the National Life Group team has been sharing the good and feeding our Vermont neighbors by partnering with the Vermont Foodbank,” Vermont Foodbank CEO John Sayles said.“Our kids are our future, and when they don't grow up with proper access to nourishing food, we're all missing opportunities for stronger communities. The National Life Group team is feeding kids today and creating a food secure future for Vermont. Do Good, indeed.”
Supporting Communities Nationwide Through Employee Giving Programs
Share the Good began as a United Way campaign in 2008 and expanded in 2010 to allow employees to select their own charitable recipients. In 2015, the National Life Group Foundation introduced a dollar-for-dollar match up to $2,000. Vermont Foodbank consistently ranks as the top recipient, and participation in the program has steadily increased over the past six years.
“The most meaningful part of Share the Good is that National Life Group employees donate to the causes they care about,” said Beth Rusnock, President of the National Life Group Foundation.“We're proud to see the program grow and empower our teammates to make a positive impact in their communities.”
