At Risman Insurance Agencies, we believe that being a good neighbor means more than helping clients protect what matters most—it means actively supporting the communities where we live and work.
Recently, three members of our team—Jess, Gwen, and Christen—participated in a volunteer event at Bread & Roses Community Kitchen and Emergency Pantry in Lawrence, Massachusetts. The event was organized by The Andover Companies in partnership with Building Impact and brought together insurance professionals and community volunteers with a shared goal: helping fight food insecurity across the North Shore.
Throughout the day, volunteers worked side-by-side preparing meals, unloading food deliveries, organizing donations, stocking pantry shelves, and improving pantry spaces to create a welcoming environment for individuals and families seeking assistance.
Bread & Roses serves approximately 12,000 community members each month, providing nutritious meals, emergency food assistance, and supportive services to those facing hunger and hardship. Thanks to the efforts of the volunteer team, 240 meals were prepared and served during the event.
We are incredibly proud of Jess, Gwen, and Christen for generously donating their time and representing Risman Insurance Agencies with compassion, professionalism, and a commitment to service.
The Power of Community Partnerships
One of the things we value most at Risman is the opportunity to work alongside organizations that share our commitment to strengthening local communities. We are grateful to The Andover Companies, Building Impact, and Bread & Roses Community Kitchen and Emergency Pantry for creating meaningful opportunities to give back and make a tangible difference in the lives of others.
Events like these remind us that small acts of service can have a significant impact. Whether it’s preparing a meal, organizing donations, or simply lending a helping hand, every contribution matters.
Giving Back Is Part of Who We Are
Community involvement has always been an important part of Risman Insurance Agencies’ culture. Through volunteer initiatives, charitable partnerships, and local outreach efforts, our team is committed to supporting the people and organizations that make our communities stronger.
We extend our sincere thanks to Jess, Gwen, and Christen for their dedication and willingness to serve. Their efforts reflect the values that guide our agency every day: caring for others, building meaningful relationships, and making a positive impact beyond the workplace.
