Meals on Wheels of Northwest Indiana was presented a $7,500 award this week by the National Life Group Foundation in honor of the commitment National Life’s partner agency in Crown Point, Ind., has made to the nonprofit.
TrueWealth Advising Group was the recipient of National Life’s first ever Agent Do Good Award, which will be awarded to two agencies whose commitment to helping nonprofits in their communities stand out.
TrueWealth is closely associated with Meals on Wheels of Northwest Indiana, donating money and untold hours of time to support the worthy cause of feeding neighbors.
“Our company lives its values to Do good. Be good. Make good every day,” said National Life President and CEO Mehran Assadi. “We’re proud to recognize our agents when they share our commitment to doing good in the communities in which we operate.”
Carey Yukich, co-owner of TrueWealth Advising with her husband, John, serves on the Meals on Wheels development committee. John Yukich serves on the “Grasshopper Crew” that manages landscaping at the nonprofit’s offices.
All TrueWealth employees and agents are involved with Meals on Wheels in some way and the agency gives its team members paid time to volunteer.
The agency was given the award at a surprise event by National Life Group Foundation President Beth Rusnock, who presented the $7,500 donation that was made to Meals on Wheels in TrueWealth Advising’s name.
