Jackson National Life Insurance Company (Jackson®) has been a dedicated, generous and engaged partner of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee since 2012. Jackson has been participating in our various fundraising events since 2014. In 2021, Jackson hosted a virtual info session to continue the crucial conversation around youth mentorship with their employees and help educate them on volunteer opportunities with our agency. They also have a member of their leadership team serving on our Board of Directors and staff who served on our Junior Board.
In 2020, Jackson staff and corporate contributors raised more than $38,000 during their peer-to-peer fundraiser to help us keep kids connected at a time when young people needed our support more than ever. Not only has Jackson provided generous financial support to our agency, but they’ve had a number of employees volunteer their time as mentors. In 2017, Jackson partnered with us in our Site-Based program, Beyond School Walls. 25 of their employees volunteered as mentors, and despite the program ending, many of their staff continued their journey as Bigs. Because of their continuous support in various areas of our agency, Jackson was chosen as our 2017 Corporate Partner of the Year.
Thank you, Jackson®, for igniting the potential of youth throughout Middle Tennessee and being a committed partner for the past nine years and counting!
