  • Community and Environment - our charities align themselves with the Liberty philosophy of helping people live safer and more secure lives, and all Liberty employees are actively encouraged to get involved in giving back to the community. Whether that means participating in company-organized volunteering opportunities, attending fund-raising events, or using your extra paid day per year of service leave dedicated to community service.
