Jamestown\u00a0 (FUI) \u00a0 \u2013 As the holidays approach, a new online video series about Farmers Union Insurance (FUI) illustrates giving isn\u2019t just a season but is business-as-usual for a company that defines itself on being there when called\u2026and whenever possible.<\/p>\n
The video series shares six different feel-good stories from a company North Dakotans can feel good about. Each short story spotlights how FUI\u2019s support of communities goes above and beyond.<\/p>\n
\u201cFarmers Union Insurance helped us keep a home for all of the youth and high school hockey in Fargo,\u201d states Jon Kram of Scheels Arena and the Fargo Force. Kram\u2019s story is just one of the countless communities that have been touched by FUI\u2019s ongoing campaign of corporate giving. Morgan Forness, Central Cass Schools superintendent, shares when his district needed a new athletic field, FUI came to the table to help make their dream a reality. Ron Walters of Great Plains Food Bank credits the insurer with helping to raise over 9,000 pounds of food, or 8,900 meals, for North Dakotans in need throughout the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it\u2019s important to the communities and states we serve, it\u2019s important to Farmers Union Insurance,\u201d said Kevin Ressler, chief sales, marketing & brand officer for FUI. The insurer\u2019s campaign of community support \u201creally separates us from other insurance companies.\u201d<\/p>\n
Supporting communities, and giving back, is integral to FUI\u2019s identity and success. \u201cMost major brands have moved away from having a presence in rural communities. We\u2019ve actually increased the number of agencies we have in small towns to serve the population that meets our mission of building stronger communities,\u201d said Ressler.<\/p>\n
When a corporation truly cares \u2014 and partners with local communities \u2014 amazing things can happen, he said. From much-needed athletic fields to student-run radio stations, Farmers Union Insurance invests in the communities which it serves \u2014 and, in doing so, raises the bar for other corporations operating in North Dakota.<\/p>\n
