GEICO employees came together to honor PRIDE month. Organized by our PRIDE employee resource group (ERG), Painting with PRIDE saw employees from different departments enjoy a guided painting session where they connected, got creative, and reinforced GEICO’s commitment to inclusion. PRIDE ERG executive sponsor and Property & Commercial Lines Executive, Melissa Gallaro, shared, "It's about creating spaces for us to gather together countrywide as we continue building a culture where authenticity is valued, inclusion is intentional, and every person feels safe to be who they are."
GEICO employees honored Juneteenth with a day of celebration filled with culture and community. Led by GEICO’s GO BOLD employee resource group, employees enjoyed a live performance by the Dance Theatre of Harlem, participated in a Q and A, and supported local businesses. We appreciate everyone who took time to reflect and honor this important day.

#NationalVolunteerMonth offers us the chance to share our passion for giving back to the communities where our employees live and work. One of the ways we support those in need is through our “volunteer time” benefit, which allows employees to engage in volunteer work while on the clock. At GEICO, we value offering our employees ways to serve the community year-round, both inside and outside of work.

This Women’s History Month, GEICO Reaching Out to Women (GROW), one of our Employee Resource Groups, hosted volunteer events at multiple Dress for Success locations.

We are inspired by all our charitable partners’ wide-ranging work and are proud that our culture of volunteerism helps our employees give back to the community. hashtag#WomensHistoryMonth hashtag#LifeAtGEICO
