Happy Holidays San Diego CPCU chapter members and supporters,
I hope you are well during this challenging year. Though we transitioned to virtual meetings this year, as is the tradition of CPCU, we still shared a proliferation of information and camaraderie despite our distance. We were even able to participate in All Industry Day with our friends throughout California and Hawaii- Mahalo! As disappointed as we are to forego our Good Works Luncheon, we will be donating the funds allocated for the luncheon to the charities listed below; each will receive $500. We are asking and encouraging you to make a donation if you’re able to do so; details about how your donation will be put to use are included below.
