NCCI will donate $25,000 to support Kids' Chance of America, in
conjunction with its AIS 2022 golf event in Orlando, FL.
Kids' Chance of America and its state affiliates provide college
scholarships for young people affected by a parent's workplace
injury or death. Guy Carpenter, a leading global risk and
reinsurance specialist and a business of Marsh McLennan (NYSE:
MMC), sponsored the tournament.
"NCCI's annual golf tournament is a great way to connect people
in the workers compensation system and to support Kids' Chance,"
said Bill Donnell, president and CEO
of NCCI. "Serious workplace injuries and deaths create huge
challenges for families. Kids' Chance scholarships provide these
families with relief from some of the financial burdens they
face."
"Guy Carpenter is honored to support Kids' Chance and help make
this event happen," said John Trace,
CEO of North America at Guy
Carpenter. "Kids' Chance is a worthwhile organization started by
people in the workers compensation industry, and it's great to be a
part of it."
"It is amazing to see what an impact these scholarship
contributions have for these students," said Vicki Burkhart, Executive Director of Kids'
Chance of America. "Many of our scholarship students would not have
the opportunity to pursue higher education without our support and
the funding provided by great companies like NCCI and Guy
Carpenter."
Kids' Chance has awarded over 8,700 college scholarships across
the country valued at more than $30 million
dollars. Kids' Chance recently recognized Bill Donnell and NCCI for their long-time
partnership with the scholarship program.
