The Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF) raised more than $1.4 million at its 18th Annual Northeast Benefit Event earlier this month in New York City.

IICF is a unique nonprofit organization dedicated to helping communities and enriching lives.

This year's gala hosted 620 professionals from across the insurance world for an evening that celebrated the industry’s dedication to giving back, while raising funds for nonprofit grantees.
 
At this 2024 IICF Northeast Benefit, IICF recognized Aon with the prestigious “Double I” award for Influence in the industry and Impact in the community. IICF bestows the annual “Double I” award to prominent insurance organizations recognizing their philanthropic dedication and commitment to supporting local communities as well as their industry leadership. Christine Williams, Northeast Region Leader at Aon, accepted the award on behalf of the organization and its employees.
