Community & Philanthropy

When Jim and Virginia Stowers founded the Stowers Institute for Medical Research, they set the ultimate example of how financial success can be a force for good. Our values include a strong commitment to helping others and building a strong community. Just as our company is committed to Prosper With Purpose^®, we want our employees to give to their communities in a way that is meaningful to them.

Through our "Mutual Friends" employee volunteer programs, we support charitable organizations in our communities. Additionally, through our "Donors for Dollars" matching-gifts program, we support our employees' contributions of time and money to their favorite 501(c)(3) organizations with generous donations from the American Century Investments Foundation.
