On July 14, 2016, the Verge Insurance Group hosted its 7th Annual fundraising BBQ for Hospice Niagara in Montebello Park.

In three hours, they raised $900/hour for a total of $2,700 going to support Hospice Niagara. Hospice Niagara also had a “huge” day selling their 5-Car Draw Tickets at the park.

“We love supporting local charities that provide such valuable services to our communities. We are proud to be donating to Hospice Niagara, an organization that provides a really important service in our community and that regularly touches many lives,” stated Mark Sherk, President of the Verge Insurance Group.

To date, since the beginning of their fundraising initiatives, the Verge Insurance Group has donated over $50,000 for charity with its annual BBQs across all their branches.

Music in the Park was delivered by Angela Siracusa, award winning Nashville recording artist and singer songwriter, and her merry band of musicians.

“We really encourage our employees to give back and we are really thrilled with the success of our fundraising these past several years,” concluded Sherk.
