AXIS Capital Holdings Limited has launched its inaugural Global Day of Giving Rally for its employees to participate in.
The Global Day of Giving Rally gives AXIS’ employees opportunities to participate in volunteer events to “make a positive difference in their local communities.” Throughout the month-long rally period, the company will give all employees time off to participate in volunteer service.
“The Global Day of Giving Rally was inspired by our people, many of whom do so much throughout the year to give back in their local communities,” said AXIS Capital president and CEO Albert Benchimol. “This campaign is designed to empower our people to be able to do even more while bringing our entire company together to help enact positive change.”

“AXIS is proudly a values-driven organization and we adhere to a philosophy that we call ‘tomorrow matters today,’ a recognition that the actions that we take today carry a lasting impact on our future and that, in both life and business, we must prioritize the issues that matter most,” added Benchimol.
A company release said that AXIS’ offices across the globe will pledge their support to a broad range of causes, such as “skills-based volunteering and low income senior care to stocking shelves at food pantries and providing support to disabled individuals.”
For employees who cannot volunteer, or for volunteers who wish to do more, AXIS Capital announced that it would match employee donations to eligible charity organizations.
