Community

We’re more than a business — we’re neighbors and community members, too. That’s why we step up however we can to support the issues that matter to us. It’s also why we founded the Aegon Transamerica Foundation, a nonprofit that focuses our corporate philanthropy on the areas most important to our employees.

Employees helping their communities

Living your best life isn’t just about the money you’re able to save or invest. It’s also about being part of something larger and helping those who need it. We encourage all our employees to be a force for good, and we give eligible employees 12 paid hours a year to spend volunteering.

Our employees volunteer their time and energy frequently to help families build houses with Habitat for Humanity in communities across the country.

We team up to support the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association. At CycleNation events around the country, our employees support life-saving heart disease and stroke research.

Many of our employees in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, volunteer at the Zach Johnson Foundation Classic, which benefits Kids on Course. The program provides mentoring, tutoring, summer learning, and more for local kids in need.

The sooner people can develop financial literacy, the better. That’s why we’re proud to be the title sponsor of two Junior Achievement’s JA Finance Parks. During this program, students immerse themselves in a real-world process involving budgeting, investments, philanthropy, banking, and more.

In 2022, we gave more than $1 million to the United Way through payroll contributions, proceeds from a silent auction, and a 50% match from the Aegon Transamerica Foundation.

Our employees donated items and stuffed backpacks in support of two good causes in 2022. Bags of Fun delivers toy-filled backpacks to kids fighting long-term or life-threatening conditions. A Precious Child’s “Fill a Backpack” event collects backpacks and school supplies for kids who need them.

To show our commitment to living long and living well, our employees came out for the 5th Annual Purple Pumpkin 5K for the Epilepsy Foundation of Connecticut and the Walk to End Alzheimer’s®.

We want to make the communities where our employees live and work better. To help do that, we established the Aegon Transamerica Foundation with our parent company, Aegon. Through a mix of financial grants and our employees’ volunteer work, we help nonprofits focused on the areas that matter most to our people.
