R. Berkley Corporation XL Capital, Ltd. Zurich North America Ordinary People, Extraordinary Efforts R eaders of impact know that most of our stories cover how the insurance industry is proactively engaged in a variety of community improvement projects, either in its own backyard or across continents. This issue highlights the industry’s reaction to the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12, 2010. Our feature article summarizes the efforts of the industry to help those affected by the quake. We have also included two separate stories — one about State Farm’s team effort to support Haitian relief efforts and the other about an individual from Swiss Re, a native of Haiti, who turned a personal ordeal into something positive. But even in ordinary, disaster-free, day-to-day life, there are still many people in need and numerous efforts spearheaded by the industry to help them. ACE Group’s alliance with food banks in the Feeding America network to support hunger relief efforts is improving the quality of life for families impacted by the economic downturn. Efforts range from packing food for distribution to needy families to making grants to sustainable agriculture and microfinance programs. And Nationwide’s longstanding partnership with the American Red Cross on multiple levels and through numerous programs strengthens Red Cross services and its core of volunteers. In addition to its philanthropy, Nationwide works with local chapters to find opportunities for company leaders to serve on boards and for volunteers to donate their time. Each year, Horace Mann sponsors the Abraham Lincoln Fellowship to provide 50 educators the opportunity to learn more about the life and legacy of our 16th president. The Fellowship covers expenses related to their study of a curriculum created by the presidential library, including round-trip transportation, lodging and most meals. For nearly 90 years, State Auto Group has earned a reputation for giving back to the communities it serves. The company offers employees the opportunity to invest their time in a charitable organization of their choice through the “Invest a Day” program, where employees are offered one paid day per year to volunteer with an eligible organization. Nearly 500 days have been invested since the program was introduced in 2008. And in addition to sponsoring a military home makeover featured on ABC-TV’s “Extreme Home Makeover,” USAA is ensuring a military family’s financial needs are met by paying off the mortgage and providing money to establish college savings accounts for the family’s three children. We hope you enjoy these stories and welcome your comments.
