National Guardian Life Insurance Company announced that its 2021 sponsorships and corporate gift, combined with employees’ personal pledges and donations, totaled more than $150,000 to support United Way of Dane County.

Said Knut Olson, NGL president and CEO: “United Way of Dane County is a powerful community organizer known for bringing people together to work toward changing lives and making a measurable impact. Giving back to our community is woven into NGL’s legacy, and I’m proud our team members continue to support United Way because it’s an important component of who we are as a company.”

For more than 70 years, NGL has proudly partnered with and supported United Way of Dane County. Funding is focused on the areas of education, income and health, with the goal to help build a community where everyone can succeed in school, work and life.

In addition to NGL’s corporate donation of $75,000 and employee payroll deductions, employees generously donate through fundraising events. Each year, the NGL employee campaign incorporates a variety of activities by which to donate and/or participate. Virtual employee fundraisers included bingo, trivia nights, a silent auction and a fitness challenge.

Continued Olson: “This has been another unpredictable and challenging year. Unfortunately, the educational and economic disparities in Dane County continue to grow during this unprecedented time. I’m grateful to everyone who stepped up to help make our annual campaign a success not only for NGL but for our community.” nglic.com
