It's been great seeing our underwriters from Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance and our broker partners from WTW give the students from Harlem Lacrosse some insight into the insurance industry the past few years. I'm looking forward to seeing some familiar faces in the industry in the near future. Huge thanks to J. Kiefer Bachmann for spearheading this, Michael Chang for his passion and energy delivering the kickoff presentation, and Eric Bachmann and the rest of the WTW team for their support.
BHSI and WTW teamed up last month for the annual Harlem Lacrosse Corporate Visit and Career Exploration Event at WTW's New York office. It was a day full of engaging activities, including an inspiring talk by Mike Chang, an overview of insurance and Directors & Officers (D&O) coverage, and a dynamic mock deal negotiation. Our BHSI underwriters and WTW brokers led small groups of students through the negotiation, offering a hands-on look at the industry. We're thrilled to continue this tradition of collaboration and career exploration. Thank you to everyone involved for making this event a success and for inspiring the next generation of professionals! #BHSI #WTW #HarlemLacrosse #CareerExploration #InsuranceIndustry #CommunityEngagement

The leadership of Harlem Lacrosse – a past grantee of our LA2050 initiative – approached us last year with a quandary: How to refine its approach to the corporate partnerships that help fund Harlem Lacrosse’s impactful work? We set out on a process to be of service to our past grantee; and by sharing their story and the results of their new efforts, keep the Goldhirsh Foundation and LA2050 social impact communities up to date. Our interviews with a variety of nonprofits and corporate funders to understand both sides of nonprofit-corporate partnerships surfaced several important learnings relevant to a broad swatch of leaders.

We are thrilled to share the success of our recent Financial Literacy Workshop, hosted in collaboration with UBS and the Premier Lacrosse League! During this impactful event, Harlem Lacrosse participants had the invaluable opportunity to learn directly from Adewale Ogunleye and Olapeju Togunde of UBS and PLL players Trevor Baptiste and Romar Dennis. The interactive session covered essential topics like budgeting, saving, and investing, equipping students with the knowledge to build a secure future. Romar Dennis shared a powerful takeaway: "I wish I could go back and understand that everyone's financial situation is very #unique. You can't just align yourself with someone else and think their spending habits are okay for you." Adewale Ogunleye emphasized the importance of daily financial decisions: "Financial literacy is the ability to understand budgeting, personal financial management, and investing. Everyday decisions form #habits, and habits have long-term effects. You can win the championships of your finances." We extend our heartfelt thanks to UBS for their partnership and to the Premier Lacrosse League for their ongoing support of our mission to empower youth through #education and #sports. We are proud to provide our students with these essential learning opportunities, equipping them with the knowledge to navigate their financial futures with confidence. #harlemlacrosse #student #athlete #sbyd #youth #development #community #empowerment #financial #literacy

🌲To cap off an incredible summer, our students gathered at Camp Cedar for a transformative experience, connecting, challenging themselves, and growing as leaders and teammates. For the first time, all five Harlem Lacrosse cities were fully represented, creating a powerful sense of #unity and community. 🏆 A highlight of the camp was the presentation of the Peacemaker Award, honoring one male and one female camper who exemplify high character, unity, and #leadership. This tradition, created in memory of Morgan McDuffee, has been a cornerstone of our summer experience since 2002. 🌟 We're proud to celebrate this year’s deserving recipients: Danny and Dayna! Their dedication and leadership inspire us all. #HarlemLacrosse #harlemlacrosse #student #athlete #sbyd #youth #development #community #empowerment #summer

Harlem Lacrosse Baltimore students had an amazing opportunity to visit the Under Armour HQ construction site in the Baltimore Peninsula for a fun and engaging job site tour last week. Students met with several members of the Whiting-Turner construction team working at the site and had the chance to ask questions about the construction industry, challenges each individual faced, and more. Students also toured the athletic field and watched a presentation on the Under Armour facility, including its history and future. Touchpointbaltimore.org

It’s not every day you run into two Lamar Jackson’s! Huge shoutout to Lamar Jackson ( NFL Quarterback) and The Baltimore Ravens for making this happen. A couple of things these Baltimore Lamar Jackson’s have in common? The uncanny ability to work their hardest and to do everything in their power to be great. What I can say about Lamar Jackson ( Harlem Lacrosse )? Will not allow any obstacle in his path to deter him from his goals and future. Lamar is a 4.0 Student Athlete who is the hardest worker on any field he steps foot on. I’ve watched this young man excel so much in such a short period of time and I truly believe he is destined to play at any high level NCAA institution he wants! Its students like Lamar that makes getting up every day to do the work that we do at Harlem Lacrosse meaningful and worthwhile. Keep up the amazing work Lamar. Greatness is in your name!
