At the New York Life Orlando General Office, we do more than work in the community, we're part of it. Many of our Agents have local roots - some even go back generations. That's important, because it gives them a vested interest in the people and businesses that make up the community. We believe there's no greater job than helping our friends and neighbors succeed.
We are super proud of our very own Laura Pearce for being recognized as the 2016 2nd Platoon Volunteer of the Year for The Mission Continues. It's an incredible organization that empowers veterans who are adjusting to life at home to find purpose through community impact. They deploy veterans on new missions in their communities, so that their actions will inspire future generations to serve.
New Hope for Kids is one of the oldest wish-fulfillment organizations in Florida. They grant around 50 wishes a year to children who have terminal or life-threatening illnesses. They are also a resource for children and families who are coping with the death of a loved one. It's a phenomenal organization, and New York Life Orlando is proud to be involved with it.
New York Life Orlando’s Child ID Program is designed to help children in our community stay safe in the home, at play, or wherever they happen to be. Tens-of-thousands of children have participated over the years in our child ID cards, providing their families with peace of mind knowing that if something should ever happen to their children, they will have an ID with vital information to distribute to the local authorities.
