In the community

Community involvement, both socially and environmentally, is a cornerstone of our company philosophy. - Joann Lee, Community Relations Manager

Parading for pride

We've received a perfect score from the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index for 4 years running. This achievement reflects our commitment to equality and diversity — qualities we strive to bring to communities across the nation. As one of the first car insurance companies to offer discounts to domestic partners who list on the same policy, we also promote and sponsor Pride events around the country.

In 2011, we extended our support to The Trevor Project, the leading national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth. Calling on the support of our fans on Facebook, we pledged to give The Trevor Project $10 for every "Like" we received. With the Facebook community's help, we reached our $50,000 donation goal in no time.

Planting seeds

From our nearly paperless customer experience and carbon offsets, to tree plantings and eco-events throughout the country, Esurance strives to make the world a greener place.

On the road

It might go without saying that Esurance is into cars, and we think that sharing rides is one of the easiest ways to help the planet. By partnering with Zimride, Esurance makes it easy to sync up with like-minded drivers and passengers. You can grab an open seat or, if you have room in your car, offer a ride yourself.
