CONNECT supports children’s hospitals while serving Costco members
CONNECT, powered by American Family Insurance, has made an impact on many Costco members’ lives over the years, insuring more than 1 million vehicles for members across the country. The company is making an impact for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (CMNH) too, donating $5 for each qualified auto insurance quote for Costco members during May
The Connection recently caught up with Sharena Ali, president of CONNECT, to discuss the company’s commitment to community.
Costco Connection How is CONNECT involved with CMNH?
Sharena Ali We have been joining Costco in support of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals since 2008 and will top $2 million in total donations this year.
Our commitment to supporting Costco’s Children’s Miracle Network campaign is one our team really rallies around. Many CONNECT employees have children who have been helped by a CMN Hospital, so it’s near and dear to our hearts. We’re grateful to be able to help support this important work.
CC What are ways Costco members benefit from CONNECT auto insurance?
SA Costco members may receive an exclusive Costco discount on their auto insurance, and additional benefits may be available to Executive members.
We’re committed to delivering a member experience that meets the high standards set by Costco. We do that through our Handle With Care™ service philosophy. We help our policyholders through some major moments in their lives, whether it’s insuring a new vehicle, adding a newly licensed 16-year-old to their policy or being there for them after an accident. The care we provide to our policyholders during those times is what really sets us apart from our competitors.
CC Why get a quote from CONNECT?
SA If nothing else, get a quote for the kids. Visit CONNECTbyAmFam.com/CMN or call 1-866-370-7998. Your quote may contribute to CONNECT’s donation to Children’s Miracle Network (donations are limited to states where CONNECT sells insurance and are restricted in MA, NY and WY), and you could save some money. That’s a pretty powerful combination!
