IIAW EMERGING LEADERS GIVE BACK DURING THE HOLIDAYS
IIAW Vice President, Mallory Cornell, presents the donation to American Family Children’s Hospital over Zoom during a December Emerging Leaders meeting.
The IIAW is once again proud to share our successful efforts to raise gifts and funds for the American Family Children’s Hospital in Madison, WI. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, gifts were purchased from the Children’s Hospital Amazon registry and sent directly to the patients. Emerging Leaders and their organizations stepped up and purchased everything from Kinetic Sand to board games, books and nail polish. While we won’t be able to see the gifts unwrapped in person, we know that opening these gifts in a place they would least expect to will bring joy for the children and their families.
In addition to the gifts that were sent, the Emerging Leaders and our generous IIAW members raised $2,850 to present to the Child Life Fund at American Family Children’s Hospital. We want to send a special thank you to individuals like Matt Frank (Robertson Ryan & Associates) and Josh Timm (The Hartford) who committed to a donation match. We also want to recognize the IMT team, specifically Territory Managers Bruce Prince, Larry Jendusa and Mike Tietz, for their generous contribution to the fundraising efforts. This is the second year in a row we have been able to come together in the spirit of giving and support the children and families in the American Family Children’s Hospital during the holidays. Our goal is to continue this tradition and support for years to come and we want to sincerely thank all who have supported the efforts of the IIAW Emerging Leaders. Thank you, from your friends at the Independent Insurance Agents of Wisconsin.
