Company Puts its Values Into Action With Employee Volunteerism
TEMPE, Ariz. – Today, LifeLock, Inc., (NYSE: LOCK) kicked off its annual day of volunteerism, where employees leave their desks, roll up their sleeves and give back to local communities in a day of service. All of LifeLock's employees are invited to join the event, called "Do-Gooder Day," across office locations in Tempe, Ariz.; San Diego, Calif.; San Francisco, Calif.; and Mountain View, Calif.
"This day at LifeLock is all about living our values and giving back to the communities where we live and work," said Hilary Schneider, chief executive officer and president at LifeLock. "These organizations we support make a positive impact in the lives of the community members they serve. We're proud to help them in return by contributing our expertise and resources."
The company's social responsibility mission is to help keep families safer in an always-connected world. In addition to providing services that help members gain some peace of mind, LifeLock is also focused on volunteerism and giving back to communities in ways that further its mission.
