Community
Here to create a better world
We’re more than a business — we’re neighbors and community members, too. That’s why we step up to support the causes that matter to us through employee volunteering. 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 through donations and volunteer efforts.
Force for Good week
Being a force for good is more than a part of our company culture, it’s a big part of living our best lives. In May 2024, we held our second Force for Good week, which encouraged employees to volunteer their time and energy to a personal cause for a company-wide social impact. As part of our commitment to corporate community engagement, eligible employees get 12 paid hours to volunteer each year.

“Our volunteer hours are a great benefit, one that promotes employee engagement and helps us recruit and retain top talent. It’s more meaningful because they can apply those hours to a cause that’s important to them.”
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 in our local communities. These are just some of the ways our employees have made the most of their volunteer time.
Driving success through Kids on Course
More than 200 Transamerica employees volunteer at the Zach Johnson Foundation Classic, an annual fundraising event for Kids on Course. The program provides students with new opportunities by putting them on a path to post-secondary education. The foundation and program were founded by professional golfer Zach Johnson, a Transamerica ambassador since 2004.
Building new lives with Habitat for Humanity
Transamerica employees bring their time, energy, and spirit as they join Habitat for Humanity in their vision to build a world where everyone has a decent place to live. One of Transamerica’s long-time volunteer programs, it continues to create positive change in communities across the country.
“The impact of having an affordable place to live is tremendous, and I have seen how it fundamentally changes people’s overall lives for the better.”
Supporting life-saving research with CycleNation
At CycleNation events around the country, our employees support life-saving research through the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association. These high-energy, stationary cycling events promote wellness in our employees and beyond, as the funds raised by cyclists are used for stroke, heart, and brain-centric research, prevention, and advocacy.

The Aegon Transamerica Foundation
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 donations and our employees’ volunteer work, we’re helping to empower communities socially and financially so that the people in them can live longer, more fulfilling lives.
