Relief Efforts for Haiti, Students, Families, Schools

14 January 2010

Friends,

Over the last 24 hours we have been asked about any effort(s) to help students, families and schools in Haiti. For now we would encourage our members to support relief agencies, like the Red Cross. Currently it is too early to develop or provide support other than those connected to search, rescue and recovery efforts.

Please pass this information along to your membership and ask everyone to keep this country, their citizens and the rescue efforts in their thoughts and prayers.

Thank you.

Chuck

Insurance Altert

PTA bylaws require local units to carry insurance including director/officer, liability , and bonding to be a unit in good standing. Colorado PTA has negotiated comprehensive coverage at volume discount rates from AIM as the preferred provider for the Colorado PTA. Your AIM renewal offer will come in September or early October and should not be confused with offers from other providers that might appear to be this annual insurance renewal. A PTA unit may obtain insurance from another insurance provider as long as the coverage requirements of the bylaws are met. When considering other providers, it is recommended to compare coverage amounts and rates as well as the actions required by the provider for covering your PTA events and property. Contact the Colorado PTA office if you have any additional questions.
