“Our teams are working diligently to assist customers whose property has been damaged by the hurricane,” said Assurant President and CEO Alan Colberg. “At the same time, we know there are needs beyond those covered by insurance, so we’re looking at other ways we can help to provide resources and relief.”

The Assurant Foundation, the charitable arm of Assurant, Inc. (NYSE: AIZ), today announced a $50,000 contribution to the American Red Cross for its Hurricane Matthew relief efforts. The Assurant Foundation also will match 2-for-1 all Assurant employee contributions made to the American Red Cross in October.
