Actuarial Foundation Seeks Volunteers
By Debbie Scanlon, Project Administrator, The Actuarial Foundation

The Actuarial Foundation has a number of volunteer opportunities for CAS members. Read on to learn where you might contribute.

Call For P&C Expertise
In a joint project with Federal Alliance for Safe Homes Inc. (FLASH), The Actuarial Foundation is developing a peril-specific consumer resource insurance information guide that will reach millions of homes across the country. The Actuarial Foundation's Consumer Education Property and Casualty Committee is recruiting volunteers to help develop an unbiased background paper that gives a good solid understanding of the insurance issues as they relate to these perils: earthquake, flood, hail, lightning, tornado, wildfire, winter freeze, power outage, and terrorism. 

If you are interested in volunteering for one or more of these perils, or for more information, please e-mail Debbie Scanlon at The Actuarial Foundation at programs@actfnd.org or phone (847) 706-3600.

Mentors Needed
The Actuarial Foundation's Advancing Student Achievement (ASA) Program is looking for actuarial volunteer mentors for new and established programs in the following cities: Atlanta; Chicago; Cleveland Heights, OH; Newark, NJ; New York City, Philadelphia; Pittsburgh; Phoenix; and St. Louis.

If you can spare a relatively small amount of time to assist in a math-mentoring school program, please visit The Actuarial Foundation's Web Site at www.actuarialfoundation.org/youth/call_for_mentors.htm or e-mail or call Debbie Scanlon at asa@actfnd.org or (847) 706-3600. We hope you will consider mentoring today and make a difference in a student's future.
