Thank you for the love!
Dear valued supporters of Spencer,
As we reflect on the month of love, which includes Black History Month, Insurance Careers Month, and Spencer Day, we feel overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible support we have received from all of you. Your unwavering dedication to our mission has truly made a difference, and we cannot thank you enough.
We also wanted to take this opportunity to express our openness to collaborating with other organizations in the RMI industry. We believe that together we can achieve even greater things and make an even more significant impact. So, if you have any partnership ideas, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are always open to new opportunities and excited to explore potential collaborations.
Thank you once again for your continued support. We couldn't do it without you!

Spencer Day 2025 Recap
Thank you for supporting #SpencerDay!
Thank you for sharing your Spencer stories, showcasing your scholars, and making personal donations to Spencer this week.
Spencer helps make career dreams come true. It also helps make connections, both great and small, not just for students and Spencer Alumni but for all of us who choose to be a part of this amazing community. None of this meaningful connectivity could be achieved without your financial support. So THANK YOU again for your generous contributions, which helped us SURPASS our goal of raising enough funds for an additional $7,500 scholarship to be awarded this year: 70 individuals banded together to raise $7,694 and counting.
It's never too late to make a personal contribution! Donate today and use #SpencerDay to share the love on social media.

Course Development Spotlight
RIMS New Jersey Chapter
Spencer and the RIMS New Jersey Chapter are looking to partner with colleges and universities in New Jersey to expand RMI education!
Spencer’s Course Development funding supports the development
of RMI curricula. Funding opportunities range from introductory course
development (i.e., RMI 101) at institutions with no RMI courses to expanding
existing RMI courses to address upper-level topics (e.g., Insurance Company
Operations, P&C, and ERM). Grant amounts typically range from $10,000 to
$25,000 (average $15,000), and New Jersey RIMS Chapter engagement is
possible to support RMI graduate scholarships and experiential learning
initiatives.
