Thank you for supporting our 2024 Funding Their Future Gala!
The Spencer Educational Foundation hosted over 400 industry professionals at the Funding Their Future Gala on September 12, 2024.
The 2024 gala honored Lilian Vanvieldt-Gray, Executive Vice President and Chief Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Officer at Alliant Insurance Services, for her dedication and leadership in promoting diversity and shaping the future of the RMI industry.
Thanks to the generosity of our industry, we are thrilled to announce that we raised over $1.5 million to support scholarships, grants, and additional educational & experiential learning programming.
Since 2009, Spencer’s Gala has brought together hundreds of risk management and insurance industry leaders annually to honor executives and their companies for their contributions to industry education. On behalf of our beneficiaries, we are so grateful for your commitment and support.
