Breaking Barriers: Insurance for Good Surpasses $150,000 in Donations!
Raizor are delighted to announce that through Insurance for Good, we have donated $151,294 to the causes above;
Raizor’s missions is to develop fundraising strategies that build recurring and long-lasting donations for non-profit organisations to better financially support themselves. Insurance for Good is a fundraising program developed in collaboration between fundraising group, Raizor, and Crombie Lockwood Insurance Brokers.
But why insurance? We chose business insurance as a fundraising tool because:
- Everyone Needs It
- Its widespread necessity makes it a fundraising product that is applicable to every business and charity.
- Support charities directly
- Insurance for Good can support charities with their own insurance, giving them the right advice whilst donating a portion of the brokerage fee back to the organisation.
- Recurring Donations
- Insurance stands out among other products as it has the capacity to generate recurring donations through ongoing participating clients.
- Donations are substantial
- Insurance can be a large annual expense for businesses, which in turn can lead to a significant donation.
“I've really enjoyed being a part of the Insurance for Good program. First and foremost, Crombie Lockwood’s aim is to do right by the client by giving them great advice and great service. We do this by building a full understanding of their business and risk profile, and supporting them with specialist expertise from across our business, but donating such a significant amount to charity each year has made the job really worthwhile.”
- Jarrod de Pont, Crombie Lockwood
