Over five years, AUL Corp. has contributed $173,619.00 to 80 different non-profit organizations, according to the warranty and vehicle service contract administrator.

AUL announced that it publicly disclosed its recent charitable contributions on Thursday.

"At AUL, we believe that getting involved in charity programs contributes to strengthened professional skills, team building, thinking creatively, and contributes to job satisfaction overall — that's why we've created this wonderful opportunity within our company," Luis Nieves, president and chief executive officer of AUL said in a news release.

AUL formed a committee dedicated to coordinating charitable contributions in 2012.

The committee consists of non-management employees who discuss and facilitate contributions.

“This group is staffed by people who were identified by their peers as wonderful ambassadors of AUL and our community,” AUL said.

Non-profit organizations the service contract administrator has given to since 2012 range from Napa, Calif. community food banks to local children's charities, according to AUL.

“One of AUL Core Values is 'Appreciation;' if you ever work with us or spend time in our office you will hear 'Thank you' a lot,” AUL chief operating officer Jimmy Atkinson said.

“We also believe this commitment should be extended to our community. This committee has done a beautiful job."
