Celebrating the Talented and Diverse Future of Risk Management & Insurance
Launched in 2020, Spencer Day aims to raise funds and create awareness for our mission to support the next generation of industry leaders in Risk Management & Insurance. We believe in celebrating this industry's diverse and talented future, and we would love for everyone to join us in this virtual celebration!
Join us by making a donation, sharing how Spencer has impacted you personally, recognizing a Spencer Scholar in your workplace or professional network, and celebrating the great outcomes we have collectively achieved -- like over 85,000 students impacted, over $9.5 million in awarded scholarships, over $8 million in awarded grants, and dozens of new RMI courses developed in colleges & universities across USA and Canada.
This year, we are hoping to crowdfund TWO additional scholarships to be awarded this Spring!! We are kindly requesting your support of $24 in 2024. We have already raised over $5,000, enough for one scholarship, and need another $4,000 in contributions to award a second! We can do this!!
Make your contribution in honor of your Spencer connection, and use #SpencerDay and #SpencerScholars to share on social media.
Thank you for your support!
