Giving back is a very genuine and regular activity for Lockton. It’s a foundation of their firm.

“It’s a big part of our culture. We focus on our clients, our associates and our communities,” Tim said.

In the Northeast, they typically gravitate toward children’s charities, and in fact, their team has made it previously to the Chubb Charity Challenge finals two times representing another children’s charity, the American Partnership for Eosinophilic Disorders (APFED). When the Lockton team brought home a check from the Challenge, it delivered oversized impact. APFED was able to partner with Boston Children’s Hospital to fund specific research that may not have happened without that check.

For Make-A-Wish, let’s hope the Lockton team sinks as many birdies as Nathan scored goals.

We have a better team heading to nationals this year than in previous years, so I hope we can win even more money for them this year! Regardless of our final standing in the tournament, it is always such a fun event to attend. I’m always very impressed with the tournament, and my colleagues and I look forward to participating each year.

We are always willing to support Chubb because of the way they support us. We appreciate the long-term commitment Chubb has made to facilitating donations for organizations that better Quebec. I know that as long as the tournament is here to stay, so are we.”

The OBHC is the largest provider of private, not-for-profit, residential childcare in Oklahoma. They offer everything from prenatal care for expectant mothers to foster care for children who are unable to be with their families, all at no cost to the children or families. Our contributions through the Chubb Charity Challenge have allowed boys and girls who otherwise would not have stable homes and proper care to be given a home-like environment in which to grow and prepare for adulthood. In the years we have been able to participate in the national tournament, we’ve received handwritten thank you notes from kids and staff members at OBHC. They’ve been sincerely grateful, and it means so much to us to know how much our contributions are helping them.

I’ve told many other carrier partners that there is no event in the insurance industry that has the same impact as the Chubb Charity Challenge. The millions of dollars given and thousands of lives that have been positively impacted through this endeavor is mind-boggling! The Chubb Charity Challenge is an event we plan our summer around and one which we are extremely proud to be a part. The Chubb Charity Challenge sets the bar for how our industry can come together to pay it forward. The positive impact a few individuals can have when we work together is truly astounding.”

Whenever an opportunity arises to raise money and give back to Cohen Children’s, I take it. In 2012, I became the chairman of Cohen Children’s Circle, which is the fundraising arm of the hospital. I was motivated to get involved and stay involved to make sure that kids like my cousin can get this kind of special care that puts a smile on their faces every day, because every kid deserves at least that much. My aunt passed away about seven years ago, and we built a playroom at Cohen Children’s called Pam’s Playroom in her honor. We know how much it would have meant to her to give the kids a place to go that’s just a nice breath of fresh air. Helping Cohen Children’s does a lot more than just benefit the kids at the hospital; the community reach is outstanding.

That’s what I love about the Chubb Charity Challenge: it brings people together in a fun and meaningful way. It makes people feel good to know their time and money is going to organizations like Cohen Children’s, and Chubb is truly, genuinely happy to be involved. Through the tournament, Chubb partners with their agents to get involved in something that is important to each individual player. I think that’s what makes our relationship with Chubb so impactful.

I’m pleased to report that my cousin is doing well! In fact, he is now a producer working in my office. This is just further proof of the amazing work that Cohen Children’s does and all the more reason they deserve our support."

Over the years, the charity has expanded, and we now raise about $20,000 in donations annually for not only the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, but also Ruby Memorial Hospital in Morgantown, West Virginia (where Kelsey is now a third year medical student), as well as Medical University of South Carolina Hospital (MUSC) l in Charleston, South Carolina. The most popular items are the tied fleece blankets which area students, volunteers and Aon colleagues make! It’s a great way for us to come together for our community, showing the kids and their families that someone is thinking about them. Kelsey’s CHRISTmas is growing every year and we are thrilled at the opportunity the Chubb Charity Challenge provides to help us continue to expand the program.

We really appreciate that Chubb is making an effort to give back to the local community in a sincere way. The charity gives smaller, but important, causes like Kelsey’s CHRISTmas an opportunity to help local residents in their community. You don’t have to be a huge, national organization to make a difference! There are always people in your local community who need help, and seeing the impact we can have on the local kids through Chubb Charity Challenge donations is nothing short of amazing. With the donation from the tournament, we’ve been able to provide more costly items to the hospitals, such as TVs and gaming systems, which the kids absolutely love. Our goal is to be able to expand into other communities and continue to improve the lives of more and more children, and the Chubb Charity Challenge is helping us do just that."

Almost everyone is personally affected by cancer in some way, and I’ve admired Jim Valvano and the V Foundation’s dedication to finding a cure for many years. With the help of the money raised through the Chubb Charity Challenge, we’ve been able to make meaningful contributions to the V Foundation’s fight against cancer.

I play in a lot of golf tournaments, but the Chubb Charity Challenge is my favorite – my team and I look forward to it every year. No other tournament brings a community of people together in quite the same way that the Chubb Charity Challenge does. Knowing that we’re all competing for some amazing causes builds a comradery amongst the teams that you don’t see anywhere else. Creating exposure for and giving back to these tremendous charitable organizations makes everyone a winner.”

The prize money we’ve won in the Chubb Charity Challenge has helped tremendously in expanding the foundation’s reach. Its existing “backpack program,” which provides non-perishable goods to grade school children to share with their families, for example, was able to expand its reach from 750 to 1,000 children per week as a result of the donation. No child deserves to be hungry, so to be able to help was absolutely amazing. We were also able to start a summer education program at the local YMCA, called “YMCA Without Walls,” that provides kids in our community a safe place to hang out over the summer, while also supporting their advancement. Beyond these programs, the prize money has boosted unrestricted grant giving by about 10%. To a community of 66,000, that’s huge.

There are also other perks of playing in the Chubb Charity Challenge. Playing in the tournament is a great way to engage with Chubb clients, both within your region and across the country. It’s also just plain fun. My teammates are avid golfers, and they are always amazed at the quality of courses we get to play as part of the tournament. You can really see the amount of work that goes into planning and executing these tournaments and can tell Chubb makes a genuine effort to not only thank their agent and broker partners, but also give back to our communities. It is this relationship we’ve built with Chubb that keeps us coming back."
