In 2024, more than 1,700 employees at Standard Insurance Company donated more than $2 million through the company’s employee giving program — Employee Giving 365 — benefiting 2,739 schools and nonprofit organizations across the nation. After a dollar-for-dollar match from both The Standard and its parent organization Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company, donations through the program in 2024 totaled nearly $6 million.

“Employees bring that caring to work every day and continue to express it outside of work, generously supporting the nonprofits and schools that enrich our communities. I am grateful to work with so many who are committed to making a real difference across the country.”
