Corporate Social Responsibility at ARAG
For the past 50 years, ARAG Legal Insurance has cared about our community. We have given back, supported nonprofits and put our team members to work volunteering toward purposeful missions through the ARAG Cares program.
Our Corporate Social Responsibility strategy includes:
Charitable Giving
ARAG focuses its charitable giving on the causes that matter most to our team members. We determine annual gifts within four giving pillars: Access to Justice, The Future of Our Youth, Strengthening Our Communities, and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.
Volunteer Time Off
Each ARAG team member receives 16 hours of Volunteer Time Off annually to donate sweat equity and thought leadership toward causes that they care about. Our CSR Committee also helps coordinate group volunteer initiatives throughout the year.
Employee Match
The passions of our employees matter to us so we are happy to double their impact by matching any financial contribution to a charitable organization, up to $500 annually.
