Presents Grants to Two Military-Focused
Non-Profit Organizations; Receives 5-Star Employer
Rating by VETS Indexes
CHICAGO, April 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Combined Insurance Company of
America, a Chubb company and a leading North American provider of
supplemental insurance sold at the worksite and directly to
individuals, continued its enduring commitment to the nation's
military, veterans, families and communities through its Operation
Veteran Giveback program. The company was also recognized as a
5-Star Employer by VETS Indexes for its ongoing military support
and efforts.
Combined's military support was on display at its annual
Operation Veteran Giveback program ceremony at its Chicago offices in late March. At the event,
Combined leaders presented a total of $50,000 via checks to two military service
non-profit organizations.
Combined's Operation Veteran Giveback is an annual program that
enables two high-performing sales regions to select a military- or
veteran-related grant recipient. This year, Combined U.S. Northeast
and Southeast Regions achieved the honor, selecting:
- Luke's Wings, which provides for emergency travel by the
families of ill and injured service members, veterans and fallen
officers during hospital recovery and rehabilitation. Luke's Wings
received a $30,000 grant; and
- Fisher House Foundation, which builds comfort homes at military
and VA medical centers so that family members can stay nearby - at
no cost - while a loved one is in the hospital. Fisher House
received a $20,000 grant.
"Our mission is to provide insurance protection to individuals
and families in their time of need which aligns with what military
service members, veterans and their families have done for us,"
said Rich Williams, president,
Combined. "We are honored to continue the legacy of providing
support to military members and their families – whether they are
customers, employees, or sales partners. Operation Veteran Giveback
is an important commitment to give back to organizations that
support those who have served us."
Combined's charitable work is just one way it demonstrates its
commitment to the military and those who serve.
Last week, from among 344 organizations that applied, Combined
was named a 5-Star Employer in the 2024 VETS Indexes Employer
Awards, continuing a streak that began in 2021.
The award recognizes employers' policies, practices and outcomes
across five categories: veteran job candidate recruiting/ hiring;
veteran employee development, veteran-inclusive culture, support
for members of the National Guard and Reserves, and military
spouse/ family support.
"The extraordinary efforts of Combined, a Chubb Company to hire,
retain and support veterans and the military-connected community
have earned the organization one of our highest awards," said
George Altman, president of VETS
Indexes.
The recognition from VETS Indexes joins other honors for
Combined's efforts to hiring veterans and support their
families:
- For the sixth year in a row in 2023, Combined earned the top
spot as America's Military Friendly® Employer ($1 billion-$4.99

- In addition, for the second year running, VIQTORY also honored
Combined as the country's #2 Military Spouse Friendly® Employer
