Congratulations to the Canton office for collecting more than 180 toys for tots in their recent December drive. Five boxes full of toys were dropped off at the local police station earlier this week.

A big thank you goes out to all who participated and a special thanks to the working team (pictured below) and the 150 Royall Street facilities team for all their hard work and support on the drive.

In October, the Canton office held a Halloween candy drive to support Operation Gratitude. Operation Gratitude annually sends 100,000 care packages filled with snacks, entertainment items and personal letters to U.S. Service Members deployed in hostile regions, with the mission of lifting morale and expressing appreciation to our Armed Forces.

Canton employees contributed to this mission by donating 86 pounds of candy. Thanks to all who participated!

No Comments on IMU volunteers at Pine Street Inn

Recently the Boston IMU office participated in the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation Week of Giving. The group (with two Marketing & Communications tag-alongs!) volunteered their time on October 17th and 18th at the Pine Street Inn in Boston.

The group worked in the Inn kitchen, chopping vegetables, making sandwiches, prepping meat and generally helping to prepare for the 2,000 meals a day that the Pine Street Inn serves.
