Made possible by the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF) Southeast Division, Rekerdres & Sons Insurance Agency, Inc. nominated the ECOM Foundation as the recipient of the IICF Southeast Grant for a total of $5,000.

Founded in 1994 and based in the US and the UK, the Insurance Industry Charitableworks with local insurance agencies to bring relief to those in need within the surrounding communities. IICF primarily focus on disaster relief and prevention, at-risk children and families, and veterans within each division’s local communities. A non-profit itself, all IICF grantees must be 501(c)(3) public charities in order to qualify to receive these allocations.

According to Sarah Conway, the Executive Director of the Southeast Division, The ECOM Foundation stood out to the grants committee “for their tremendous impact on education and the unique population they serve. IICF Southeast is focused on at risk youth and providing funding to change the life of each child we can,” so naturally the Foundation was the perfect choice.

Reksons is happy to work with IICF to support the ECOM Foundation, which has actively worked for improved living, health, and education environments for the producers of coffee, cotton, and cocoa and their families since 2006. The successful nomination recognizes ECOM’s own notable efforts to aid the communities it works with with the goal of facilitating permanent change.

Here at Rekerdres & Sons, we always keep ourselves abreast of client interests. Especially when it comes to sustainability and humanitarian endeavors, Reksons has been looking out for client well-being for decades. We are pleased to advance the causes that are important to ECOM by aiding and progressing your philanthropic efforts.
