Quotes:
Progressive Social Responsibility Manager Wanda Shippy
“At Progressive, being socially responsible isn’t new—what’s new is that we’re now formally reporting on our social responsibility efforts. People are becoming more interested in what companies are doing in terms of the environment and the impact companies have in their communities. We launched “Progressive Together” to make it easy for people to get a clear picture of what we’re doing and how we work with others to make a difference.”

“We call our social responsibility site ‘Progressive Together’ because it reflects our commitment to work with our communities, business partners and customers to create a better future together. We want the site to be a place where people can see what we’re doing and also see ways they can get involved if they choose.”
