Zurich, a leading commercial property and casualty insurance provider in North America and globally, celebrates its employees in North America for helping raise more than $1M of the total $1.6M Zurich delivered to local charitable causes in 2009.

“I look forward to helping Zurich reach new goals for giving back to the communities we serve in 2010.”

According to Jillian Walsh, director of Corporate Giving and Community Relations for Zurich in North America, Zurich employees' leadership in philanthropic activities made a positive difference for Zurich's contribution to its charitable partners, especially during a challenging economic environment. In fact, she said, Zurich saw its biggest turnout ever for employee involvement in Zurich's fundraising activities.

Zurich offers its employees numerous ways to give back. It hosts an annual employee-giving campaign, as well as numerous fundraising events throughout the year.

In addition to the more than $1M generated by its employees, Zurich in North America contributes monies to local charities through its community, regional and employee matching grants programs. In 2009, this total amount from employee and company giving was just over $1.6M.
