Each year the New York Life Giving Campaign is an opportunity for our employees and agents to come together to donate and raise funds for the philanthropic causes important to them.
Fun and festive fundraisers are held at New York Life’s offices across the country, from karaoke to bake sales, and mini golf to a carnival with a dunk tank. President & CEO Craig DeSanto led the charge this year with a gameshow-format fundraising event to benefit the Scholastic Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, a match-eligible strategic partner of the New York Life Foundation. During the campaign and throughout the year, the New York Life Foundation matches gifts made to organizations focused on childhood bereavement, K-12 schools, colleges and universities, and its strategic educational and social justice grantees.
This event exemplifies our collective dedication to serving the needs of others and is central to who we are as a company.”

“Our employees and agents never fail to impress me with their creativity and generosity, both during this campaign and throughout the year,” says Co-Head of the Foundational Business and this year’s Giving Campaign Chair, Aaron Ball. “This event exemplifies our collective dedication to serving the needs of others and is central to who we are as a company.”
“New York Life’s annual Giving Campaign is one of the best examples of how our employees and agents come together to put our core value of humanity into action. I couldn’t be prouder of the way our agents and employees stepped up to support so many wonderful organizations and causes,” says West Central Zone Senior Vice President and Giving Campaign Co-Chair Sonali Virendra.
While the Giving Campaign takes place during a relatively short span of time, all year long you can find our agents and employees donating their time and talents to causes and nonprofits where they live and work. In 2022, agents and employees donated more than 136,000 hours of volunteer time to address community needs across the country and the company provided $2.1 million in volunteer grants to support such efforts.
