Making an impact: Liz Spencer
With a $25,000 donation from Lockton, Liz Spencer, AVP, Account Executive, and her colleagues in the Hartford office will continue to support those with disabilities in their community.
Liz received the Community Impact Award for the Northeast region. The award recognizes an Associate in each region with a $25,000 donation on behalf of the Lockton family and shareholders to a charity of the Associate’s choice as a thank you from Lockton.
She will be giving the donation to Oak Hill, a nonprofit that provides support, educational programs, and a safe haven for people with disabilities.
The Hartford office first became involved with the charity by adopting classrooms for an annual holiday drive. They are now on the fourth year of the drive, where they donate gifts to disabled children and their families.
“To be able to see the kids in person and see who we are impacting is truly amazing,” Liz said. “A mom came back to us last year and was talking about how the earmuffs we bought for her son truly changed his life because of the sensory issues that he has. To see this kind of impact is what drives us.”
Lockton’s pillar of giving back to the community resonates with Liz, and she continues to emphasize it to fellow Associates. She sees this emphasis on giving back as what sets Lockton apart.
“It’s a great motivation to keep moving forward and a reminder to new Associates that Lockton means it when we say that giving back to the community is important,” she said.
When the award is given to Oak Hill, she knows that it will make a significant difference to the organization. With the help of this award, Oak Hill and the Hartford office can continue to make positive change in the community.
“Although I’m personally being recognized, I really feel like our office is being recognized which feels so special,” Liz said. “We’re all in it as a team and are so passionate about supporting Oak Hill. It’s so special to be able to bring that back to our office and note that our collective work and support around Oak Hill is being recognized.”
