The Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF) New York/Northeast division had a packed charity dinner event last month. It was held on Dec. 14 at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York and drew more than 900 attendees.

The foundation said the event raised more than $1.2 million. The IICF’s Northeast division has now raised more than $5.3 million since its first event in 2007. At the event, the IICF awarded grants to 14 nonprofit organizations that serve people across the New York/New Jersey/Connecticut tri-state area.
