Aflac is committed to helping those who need our care, whether or not they’re customers. That’s why Aflac works with the National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) to support certified, veteran-owned and service-disabled businesses across the country. In business, philanthropy and everything else, when you partner with Aflac, you partner with a carrier that has always been devoted to the community — and always will be.
