On behalf of the Cleveland Chapter of Chartered Property Casualty Underwriters (CPCU), we would like to take this opportunity to "Thank You" for your generous donations to our 2011 Winter Coat Campaign. Without your help this would not be possible.

We partnered with Love Inc, Insurance Board of Northern Ohio, Ohio Mutual Insurance Group and many of the insurance professionals in Northeast Ohio.  Without their involvement, this drive would not have been possible. A special "Thank You" to the cleaning restoration companies, whose tireless efforts made it possible for all recipients to receive clean coats, sweaters and sweatshirts.

 A special "Thank You" to Ohio Mutual Insurance Group who donated a pair of gloves for every single coat we collected.  They have been a generous partner in this Good Works Campaign for several years now.

Another special "Thank You" to Insurance Partners who so generously donated 45 new coats at the last minute due to our "Urgent Request for Children's Coats" on November 3rd.

The coats were delivered on November 11th, to the following organizations:  St Herman’s Monastery, a men’s homeless shelter, The City Mission, a shelter for men, women and children, and Love Inc., an organization that works with all denominations of churches who minister to the poor and homeless around Northeast Ohio.

We just learned that our clothing donations to St. Herman's Monastery is the largest clothing shipment they receive each year.  They count on our donations each year to help not only the men who utilize the services of their facility but also the families in the neighborhood who are in need of warm clothing each year.  We are very proud of our insurance industry friends for your  thoughtfulness and generous donations each year.

Because of your efforts, there will be warm clothing for those in need in the Northeast Ohio area.

Thank you once again for a very successful coat campaign.
