We are 6 days away from Give Week. How does your agency show up in the community? Drop your pictures below or email us at [email protected]

We want to see you serve your community.

We are 7️⃣ days away from GIVE Week 2026! 🌟

Young Agents encourage YOU to get involved and give back to your community from June 1-10. One meaningful way to get involved is by supporting local food banks in your area.

Not sure where to start? Here are a few ideas:

🚘 "Fill the Trunk” Challenge
Encourage agents to collect non-perishable items and fill their car trunk. Create a friendly competition in the office for donations!

🤝 Volunteer & Network Days
Organize shifts at local food banks to volunteer together. This is a great opportunity to get involved and network with peers/other agents in your area.

💵 $20 Hunger Challenge
Ask peers to donate the cost of a typical lunch. Encourage social posts/tag a fellow agent to encourage donations.

📦 “Pack with a Purpose” Event
Host a group packing event (meal kits, snack bags, etc.). You can include notes of encouragement!
