Encouraging Lifelong Civic Learning


In collaboration with our nonprofit partners, Travelers promotes not only awareness of the issues of the day but also lifelong knowledge of – and participation in – the functioning of our democracy. Our employees have access to nonpartisan resources on everything from the First Amendment to the filibuster, and we are also dedicated to the civic engagement of our future workforce. Through partnerships with nonprofit organizations, we support nonpartisan programming for younger generations that sparks family conversations about civic engagement.
Voting and Elections
In our representative democracy, your vote is your voice. At Travelers, we’re working to make sure everyone’s voice is heard, both within our employee population and beyond. In addition to hosting voter registration drives and promoting awareness of upcoming elections within our Travelers offices, we are investing in a culture of democratic participation in our communities by supporting voter registration drives at events like the Travelers Championship and partnering with organizations to reach young adults and foster a lifelong commitment to voting.

Getting out the vote is one aspect of Citizen Travelers that is particularly meaningful to me.

I have also enjoyed hearing other people's stories about why voting is important to them. Perhaps, my favorite thing about asking people if they're registered to vote is hearing the pride in their voice when they declare I've been voting for 40 years, or I've been voting since I was 18.

It really has given me a greater appreciation for having this right, which our veterans and ancestors have fought to obtain and defend. There is such an appetite for civic engagement at Travelers, and it has been inspiring to meet with people throughout the company who are so deeply involved in and invested in their communities.

Two more young people hold up the frame. At the bottom beneath the umbrella logo is the text hashtag Citizen Travelers.

I am very proud to work for a company who believes in and champions the importance of civic engagement.

On the table under the tent are red and white flowers with a small American flag in the center and a row of hats with the white umbrella logo over a blue and red circle.

Travelers empowers us as individuals with our own interests and beliefs, providing Citizen Travelers as a channel for us to grow and become more engaged. Every voice matters, and every voice is a vote. It's up to us to make it count. Go vote.
