The Actuarial Foundation (TAF) is proud to spotlight Emily Gingrich, Chief Actuary at Corebridge Financial. Corebridge’s partnership with the Foundation is rooted in a shared mission to strengthen math confidence and promote pathways for actuarial careers. As a dedicated advocate for education and corporate responsibility, Emily plays an important role in advancing this impactful collaboration by serving on the Board of Trustees for The Actuarial Foundation.
Why is this partnership important to Corebridge. What are your hopes for this partnership?
Corebridge is committed to helping more people take action in their financial lives, and there is no better foundation for those actions than building confidence in math. The programs that TAF offers provide support for students to learn the math skills they need for personal and professional success as adults.
Why is building math confidence and preparing students for STEM careers important to Corebridge?
Building confidence in math can help unlock the potential of all students, creating opportunities for more students to consider STEM careers. That includes opening students’ eyes to different career pathways they may not have been aware of or considered. As an employer of students focused in STEM studies, we are excited to help create a broader pipeline of these students and prepare the next generation of actuaries.
How will this sponsorship make an impact on the program and the company?
As sponsors of STEM Stars, Math Motivators and TAF generally, Corebridge proudly provides financial support to ensure TAF programs are accessible to students and teachers across the country. Additionally, we have the honor of serving on the TAF board of directors and the STEM Stars Corporate Advisory Council, strengthening TAFs connection to the financial services industry, which provides access to additional funding and volunteers, as well as internships and jobs for actuarial students and graduates.
Our partnership with TAF has positive impact on Corebridge too. It not only helps us grow the workforce pipeline but also provides meaningful employee engagement opportunities and helps build our name recognition amongst actuarial students and professionals. Additionally, we are a leading provider of retirement solutions in K-12 education. Supporting programs for K-12 students and teachers is a key focus area of our Corporate Social Responsibility efforts. TAFs high-impact programs are an important piece of our philanthropic support for education.
How are Corebridge employees supporting TAF?
Corebridge employees have been involved with TAF in numerous ways, including as volunteers with Math Motivators, members of the Corporate Advisory Council for STEM Stars and participating in fundraising events.
Thanks to leaders like Emily, the Foundation’s partnership with Corebridge continues to thrive—opening doors for students, strengthening communities, and investing in the next generation of actuarial professionals.
