The ‘F & G’ in their company stands for Fidelity and Guaranty – but it could just as easily stand for ‘fun and games’ after their employees’ performance (again) at EveryStep’s Amazing FundRacer on April 30th.
F & G took the top two spots on the podium when the final totals were added up. For two of the racers on the winning team, it was the second straight AFR victory. Coming in second place this year was a fellow F & G team led by Community Engagement Manager and EveryStep all-star supporter Angela Jiskoot.
“Our team looks forward to the Amazing FundRacer every year. It’s a unique opportunity to come together, build camaraderie and have some fun, all while supporting a cause that matters deeply to us,” says Angela, “We’re proud of our team’s strong finishes over the past few years, including bringing home first and second place this year.”
F & G takes its role as Presenting Sponsor of the Amazing FundRacer seriously, as they do with every facet of their involvement with EveryStep. F & G and its employees are among the biggest supporters of EveryStep’s Cheer Box program – giving their time from setting up on the first day to tearing down on the last - with plenty of gift wrapping in the middle.
“EveryStep is a natural fit for our community engagement efforts because our missions are so closely aligned. At F&G, our giving pillars focus on addressing essential needs, and EveryStep’s work touches each of those areas in meaningful ways,” says Angela, “From supporting individuals and families to strengthening communities across Iowa, they are making a tangible, lasting impact.”
While EveryStep can’t thank F & G enough for their enormous support, Angela says that she is one who wants to say thanks. “Their team is incredible to work with, and we truly value the partnership and the shared commitment to making a difference throughout the year in a variety of ways,” Angela says, “What matters most is being part of an event that directly supports EveryStep’s mission and the communities they serve. We are grateful to be the Presenting Sponsor and can’t wait for next year!”
