OneAmerica Financial^® continues a 11-year tradition of dedicating a full week of volunteer service to its local communities.

Hundreds of associates will assist 26 nonprofits during the 11th annual Week of Caring. Through both in-person and virtual volunteer activities, OneAmerica Financial associates will dedicate their time and talents across several states.

“Week of Caring is one of many ways that OneAmerica Financial demonstrates its community commitment in action,” said Kim Thomas, chief diversity officer and head of community affairs for OneAmerica Financial. “Giving back has always been part of our DNA, and we’re exceedingly proud to celebrate our culture of caring for our 11th year.”

While most volunteer opportunities are in communities in which OneAmerica Financial associates live and work, associates nationwide may also volunteer for virtual activities benefitting national organizations. Eighteen volunteer sites are in the Indianapolis area; other communities that will benefit from the investment include Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Portland, Maine; and San Diego, California.

Week of Caring is conducted in collaboration with many nonprofit organizations, such as Gleaners Food Bank of Indiana, Second Helpings, Dress for Success, Firefly Children & Family Alliance, New Hope of Indiana, Preble Street, Playworks, San Diego Rescue Mission and Coburn Place. Virtual volunteer opportunities are also available through the Red Cross, the Alzheimer’s Association and United Way.

Last year, associates gave over 3,300 hours to support their communities in Indy, Wisconsin, Portland and San Diego/San Marcos. Week of Caring is part of a broader associate-driven philanthropic effort that also includes the company’s annual giving campaign. The OneAmerica Financial Cares Giving Campaign starts in September and runs through mid-October. Last year, the campaign raised over $700,000 to invest back into communities across the country.

In 2014, the companies of OneAmerica Financial became the first organization in central Indiana to devote an entire week to volunteer service. Every year associates have the opportunity to collaborate with their colleagues in an immersive, community-focused effort that benefits others.
