As the nation\u2019s largest domestic hunger-relief organization, Feeding America partners with farmers, manufacturers, and retailers to bring nourishing food to the people who need it most.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Through the Giveback to Feeding America, the Lemonade community provided 33,942 meals to America&#8217;s hungry.&nbsp;Now, these Americans won&#8217;t have to choose between buying food and medical bills, rent, and\/or transportation, leaving more room for their stability and wellbeing.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The 2017 Lemonade Giveback<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our total Giveback for 2017 was $53,174, and this number calls for some context: this amounts to 10.2% of our revenue. As a point of reference, the Fortune 100 give 0.08% of their revenues each year (<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/cecp.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/GIN2016_Finalweb.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CECP<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> p.36). So if year-one is anything to go by, Giveback has the potential to 100X that benchmark. Time will tell, but early indications are encouraging. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We had 21 cause-centric-groups as of June 30, and 14 (66.7%) received a Giveback. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s a fun fact: among these 14 causes, an average of 18% of premiums were given to charity.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> These funds can go a long way when put in the right hands. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But it\u2019s more than just numbers. Giveback amounts to a change in kind, because it isn\u2019t dependent on profits (Lemonade hasn\u2019t turned a profit yet). We think of Giveback as a social contract among our community, where the size and allocation is determined not by our big profits or big hearts, but by the good fortune and good behavior of our members. Remember, it\u2019s not our money.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As our Chief Behavioral Officer Dan Ariely explained, \u201cit\u2019s money our community has entrusted to us, first and foremost to help our members recover from unfortunate events in their lives, and secondly, to help the less fortunate in our broader community.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Share your Feeding America impact, and read more about our 2017 Giveback <\/span><a href=\"\/blog\/time-to-giveback\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to the Lemonade community, these Americans won&#8217;t have to choose between buying food and medical bills, rent, or transportation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":1073,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"puppies_section":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-926","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-giveback-2017","8":"post-hentry"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Providing 33,942 Meals with Feeding America | Lemonade Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Insurance that Gives Back: Lemonade supports Feeding America.
