"Volunteerism has always been an important part of my life, an example set by my parents. When I was researching opportunities, I was impressed by your company's longstanding dedication to the environment and community service. It was exciting to learn that your employees are encouraged and paid to volunteer, and I also loved learning how everyone pulls together once a year to sponsor a charity event. It would be great to know I was working for an organization that actively gives back to the community."

When an interviewer asks this question, they're not interested in hearing the entire detailed history of their company. They want to know if you prepared for the interview and have a deeper understanding of the company and its goals, mission, and values.
