BIA Supports Local Charities Through Annual Food Drive

As part of its annual Insurance Month activities, the Bahamas Insurance Association (BIA) held its annual food drive on April 6, 2026, reaffirming its commitment to community outreach and charitable giving. In addition to donating a considerable quantity of non-perishable food items, the Association made monetary contributions exceeding $11,000 to three charitable organizations: the Elizabeth Estates Children's Home, the Children's Emergency Hostel, and the Persis Rodgers Home for the Aged.
Representing the Elizabeth Estates Children's Home were Andrea Johnson, Deputy Administrator, and Willette Poitier. The Children's Emergency Hostel was represented by A. Charlene Gibson, General Manager, and Bethany Moncur, Operations Manager. Also in attendance was S. Lavern Stewart, Administrator of the Persis Rodgers Home for the Aged.
The initiative highlights the BIA's continued commitment to supporting vulnerable members of the Bahamian community and demonstrates the insurance industry's dedication to corporate social responsibility.
