Each year, National Underwriter Property & Casualty attends the Workers' Compensation Institute's Education Conference in Orlando, Florida, which includes a volunteer day at Give Kids the World village in nearby Kissimmee.

So many attendees volunteered this year — nearly 500 people — that the volunteer day expanded to range over three days. After a charity gala hosted by National Underwriter Property & Casualty Editor-in-Chief Shawn Moynihan on the evening of Aug. 20, WCEC's volunteers and attendees raised $50,000 for Give Kids the World.
