WICC is pleased to partner with the Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario (IBAO) Ontario. As a Community Partner of WICC Ontario, IBAO promotes WICC Ontario initiatives to its membership and the broker community at large through its communication channels.
“We’re very glad to have IBAO as a new partner,” said Marilyn Horrick, Co-Chair, WICC Ontario. “Not only do they provide direct support to WICC, they have a very large membership who regularly gives back to their communities. They’re a welcome addition to our network of supporters.”
Said IBAO Director of Operations, Brett Boadway: “Everyone knows someone affected by cancer—that’s certainly true for the team here at the IBAO,” … “WICC is a very important cause. We’re proud to align with the industry by supporting these worthwhile initiatives and contributing to WICC’s efforts.”
WICC was also selected as IBAO’s charity of choice for the 2019 IBAO Convention, where brokers raised an incredible $23,000 for WICC.
– At the recent IBAO Gala Dinner, Marilyn Horrick spoke on behalf of WICC Ontario: “Extending our reach for cancer research fundraising into the brokerage community is an incredible opportunity and would not have been possible without the IBAO. We’re moved by the generosity of Ontario’s brokers and we’re tremendously grateful for the support.”
– IBAO President Jeff Gatcke also spoke: “We continue to learn about the key role WICC plays in mobilizing Canada’s insurance industry in the fight against cancer,” ….”Given our partnership with WICC Ontario—a new collaboration we announced earlier this year—we wanted to further align our largest event and platform with this important initiative. We couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome.”
WICC was founded in 1996 and has raised over $17.5 million since its reception.
