BAER INSURANCE’S JOEY BROMS FUNDRAISES FOR THE LEUKEMIA AND LYMPHOMA SOCIETY
Joey Broms of Baer Insurance Services, Inc. in Middleton was nominated to fundraise for the “Visionary of the Year” campaign for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Cancer, specifically blood cancers, have impacted Joey’s life immensely and have affected many around him. When he was fourteen, he started volunteering at a camp for children with cancer and blood-related diseases called Camp Rainbow Foundation. This camp ignited the spark in Joey to give back and work to support research to find a cure for this terrible disease, and it was an honor for him to be nominated to be a part of this important campaign.
CLEMENTS INSURANCE AGENCY KEEPING THE COMMUNITY CLEAN
To kick off spring, some of the Clements Insurance Agency team and their families joined together to participate in the Ghidorzi Green & Clean event in Wausau. This annual event brings together the community to clean up the landscape of litter and debris at over 35 different sites around Wausau. Over the years, the event has removed 29.15 TONS of trash and is a staple event for community members of all ages to come together, celebrate Earth Day and support the community.
