Community Involvement

As a corporate citizen of Bermuda and a respected member of the insurance industry, Endurance places a high value on giving back to the local communities in which we live and work. The colleagues with whom we volunteer through the investment of time and resources appreciate the same high standards that we strive for in our business relationships.

In 2011, to commemorate its ten year anniversary, and in the spirit of integrity, teamwork and service with which the company was founded, Endurance started an Employee Day of Service initiative. Employees from around the globe participated in various volunteer events to give back to their local communities.

Our Commitment to Bermuda

Endurance recently signed a multi-year commitment to the ABC Football School and Valencia Club, one of the largest football franchises in Europe, which will educate local coaches and provide exposure for talented Bermuda athletes to high quality training and recruiting opportunities.
