What started as a story time at home turned into a powerful story of giving back. While teaching her daughter to read, Kelsey Vasko, VP, Assistant General Counsel, felt grateful for the resources she had-and inspired to help others experience the same. That inspiration led her to volunteer with Words Alive where she now serves on their Board of Directors. Kelsey turned her passion into purpose and sparked a journey that’s still unfolding. #NationalVolunteerMonth

This #NationalVolunteer Month, we're celebrating our team members who give back. For us, community service isn't just something we talk about – it's woven into our culture. Our employees receive 16 hours of paid volunteer time annually to support causes that matter to them, backed by the #LPLFoundation's focus on economic well-being in underserved communities. From pro bono legal work and nonprofit board leadership to food bank support and community organizing, our team members are making meaningful differences in countless ways. We've captured some of their inspiring volunteer stories that showcase how they're using their unique skills to strengthen our communities. Click through to meet Brian, Beth, Aneri, and Bianca—four LPL employees whose commitment to service embodies our values. Their dedication reminds us that supporting the communities where we live and work isn't separate from our business – it strengthens it.
