Welcome to CCAHU

Central California AHU News - View Blog

Many of you enjoyed our recent December luncheon celebrating the season; you may have participated in our request that you bring a toy for Toys for Tots and/or coat to share some warmth for the children of Fresno; unfortunately, we forgot that we also wanted to encourage everyone to bring cans of food for the Community Food Bank. I'm so happy to announce that your CCAHU Board voted to officially participate in the canned food drive that our Administrator, PESC is conducting. I'm certain that we are all painfully aware that the lack of water put many of our Fresno County residents into dire straights; you may have seen news stories this summer and fall documenting the incredibly high usage of our Community Food Bank as a direct result of these times and circumstances. Although the need is constant and continuing in this county and the Community Food Bank has turned into a distribution service rather than a storehouse, this season is a time that helps us focus on the incredible need that is a fact of life for so many of our neighbors in this "Land of Plenty."

I ask that you open your hearts and your pocketbooks to create a logistical problem for PESC with the sheer volume of canned food we can present. Let's show our community the real character of our chapter and of our profession; we can demonstrate that Insurance Agents are not anyone to be feared or watched with a jaundiced eye, but rather vibrant, responsible citizens who are vitally concerned for the welfare of our clients and our community. Please note the deadline for donations, and that every one of your board members is willing to receive your canned goods or to pick them up from you for delivery to PESC to make it easy for you to participate. I would urge those of you who live out of town to contact Shauna Dickinson at PESC and let her know that you would like to send her a monetary donation that will enable us to buy cans of food in order to enable your participation in this important drive. This may be one of the most important gifts you make in this season of giving. Please be as generous as I believe our membership can be.

Thank you and have a wonderful holiday season, whether you're celebrating Christmas, Hannukah, Kwaanza or an extended New Years. You're the best of the best!!!

Rick
