In addition to donating to Samaritans Purse’s relief funds for victims of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, Alliant National Title Insurance Co. has created a fund to support its title agents, their employees and families and their communities.
“The Alliant National family stands ready to help those affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. We are praying for everyone impacted by both hurricanes,” Alliant President and CEO Bob Grubb told The Title Report.
“Our people have been in touch with our title agents who’ve been directly impacted by the storm, asking how we can be helpful to them, their employees and their communities at this time,” Grubb added. “Whether that’s sending support staff to their offices, delivering water or even a simple sandwich platter – we are trying to help with anything they might need.”
Alliant donated to Samaritans Purse’s Hurricane Harvey Relief fund, and said it plans do the same for Hurricane Irma. It also is partnering with the Greater Houston Community Foundation to offer support to its title agents, their employees, their families and their communities through creation of the Alliant National Title Helping Hands Fund.
Alliant said the fund will help with costs and expenses not covered by insurance or other means of recovery.
“It is an honor to be part of an organization that understands that the very foundation of our success comes solely from independent title agents, and when those agents are in need of assistance from such a deadly, natural disaster it is a privilege to create a formal giving platform that can truly make an impact for those responsible for our success,” said Rodney Anderson, Alliant’s senior vice president and southwestern regional agency manager.
Grubb said Alliant still is assessing Hurricane Irma’s impact on its Florida agents.
“Our agents are deeply invested in their communities and many have served in roles such as city council members, local mayors and emergency management coordinators,” he said. “They are familiar with the needs of their communities and we want to provide them additional support.”
