Funding the diverse and talented future of the RMI industry.

The Spencer Educational Foundation is embarking on our 2nd annual comprehensive fundraising campaign, Funding Their Future, which aims to raise $1 million and will honor Peter Garvey (EPIC Insurance Brokers and Consultants) and Mary Roth (Risk and Insurance Management Society, Inc. (RIMS)).

Now through September 15, we will recognize longtime industry supporters and those who helped pave the way for the Foundation’s success, highlight the growth Spencer has achieved since its founding in 1979, and celebrate the diverse and talented students who have benefited from Spencer’s programming.

“Finding Your Place in Risk Management and Insurance:” A Roundtable Chat with Peter Garvey and Mary Roth

Watch this interesting roundtable discussion with Spencer Honorees Peter Garvey and Mary Roth! Honorees, Spencer staff and Spencer scholarship recipients come together to talk about why risk management and insurance is such an attractive career path, and how to foster an evolving, fulfilling career in the industry.

Peter Garvey, Vice Chairman of Galway Insurance Holdings

“Spencer’s mission is one that’s important to me and should be to anyone who cares about the future of the insurance business. Attracting diverse, interesting and talented young people to an insurance career and supporting the education needed for them to thrive is one of the things insurance companies and brokerages have done poorly. The Spencer Educational Foundation has been doing something about that for some time now and we should all contribute the means to do more of it."

Mary Roth
CEO, RIMS

“Spencer has been a part of my career DNA since I joined RIMS in 1985. It's been a part of everything that I've done in my career, and I've supported the organization not only through my role at RIMS, but also personally. I feel that risk management is critical within any organization and it's critical that we train and develop the next generation.”
