THE INSURANCE CENTER’S VOLUNTEER DAY
At the end of March, employees from the Monona branch of The Insurance Center took a day to volunteer at the Second Harvest distribution center in Madison, WI. Second Harvest is a food bank dedicated to providing those facing hunger in the community with healthy and affordable food. Members of The Insurance Center’s Property & Casualty, Life & Health and Corporate Benefits departments spent the day sorting, packing, weighing, and dividing food for the families in need. At the end of the afternoon, it was clear that this will become a tradition as all participants are excited to volunteer again and continue to give back to those in need in their community.
TRICOR SUPPORTS PLATTEVILLE INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND PROJECTS
At the beginning of March, TRICOR Insurance donated $15,000 to Platteville’s Inclusive Playground. This playground is a local project with the intention of creating a playground where all those who visit can participate and have fun, regardless of their physical mobility or any disabilities that would keep them from playing on a traditional playground. The project’s ultimate goal is to ensure a safe space that eliminates the worry of judgement, safety concerns and lack of accessibility, and instead fosters an environment of inclusiveness and socialization for all.
