• Primerica Continues to Support Veterans, Armed Forces

• by krupp

Primerica stands proudly with veterans and active service men and women protecting families across the United States and Canada.

This year, The Primerica Foundation has donated $25,000 to the USO, a leading organization serving the U.S. military and their families. The donation will go to support the USO’s Pathfinder program, which provides resources to veterans and their families transitioning into civilian life after military service.

In September, more than a dozen Primerica volunteers, including CEO Glenn Williams, greeted military personnel at the USO Georgia site at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta. The volunteers served lunch, staffed the USO counter and distributed gift bags.

Williams said: “Primerica and The Primerica Foundation are so proud of our partnership with the USO and the incredible work that the USO does to support our men and women in the military both in Atlanta and all over the United States.”

Veterans who previously served in the U.S. and Canadian armed forces make up a significant percentage of the Primerica field force and the Home Office employs more than 80 Veterans in its locations in Duluth, GA, and Mississauga, ON.

• Above and Beyond: Diana Ballard

• by krupp

Volunteering and working at Primerica often go hand in hand, and many of our Home Office employees are regular volunteers, both at work and at home in their communities. Sometimes, these employees go above and beyond the call of duty.

Diana Ballard, in Field Supervision, is one of these employees. Earlier this year, she donated one of her kidneys to her 66-year-old husband, Dakota.

It was an arduous two-year process that began when they discovered his history of high blood pressure was linked to kidney failure. All of his siblings were ruled out, so Diana got tested and found out she was a potential match. After extensive blood work and more tests, she was cleared to be a donor for her husband. The transplant took place May 5, 2017.

“I had so many people praying for me here at the Home Office (Duluth, GA),” says Diana. “This company was so supportive and understanding of my schedule and everything that I was going through as a caregiver. I never had to worry about taking time off to be with my husband or to get some rest.”

Fast forward to today, Dakota is doing “phenomenally well with no complications,” but “none of the credit goes to me,” Diana insists.

Diana, who just celebrated her 19th year at Primerica on August 13, is an avid volunteer often heading up annual holiday gift drives in her department, collecting donations during Thanksgiving and working with Habitat for Humanity.

Outside of the volunteer work she does with Primerica, Diana volunteers with an organization called Forever Fed through her church that provides food and clothing to the local area’s needy.

Diana credits Primerica as being the spark by which she got into volunteering.

“This company provides me with so many ways to be able to grow as a person,” she says. “I can volunteer while at work and the company promotes this. They provide each employee with an annual volunteer day, which is a day off to volunteer with an organization of their choice. We can also participate with Meals on Wheels during the workweek. These types of opportunities are a catalyst to being able to do good in our world outside of Primerica.”
