Colvard Insurance Group Plans Charity Event to Fund Scholarship in Honor of Local Teen Killed in Automobile Accident

Cullman, AL (PRWEB) October 12, 2016

Colvard Insurance Group, an Alabama-based insurance and financial planning consultancy serving communities throughout the Birmingham and Huntsville regions, is embarking on a charity effort to raise donations that will be used to establish the Whitney Renee Cotton memorial scholarship fund.

Whitney Renee was a 17-year-old girl who loved cheerleading, sports, and the outdoors before she tragically passed away as the result of an automobile accident in April of this year. Whitney is survived by her family, and her parents are overseeing the establishment of a local scholarship fund in her name that they hope will keep her memory alive in the local community.

"Losing Whitney has been a blow to everyone in our community, our heart goes out to her family, and we are going to do everything we can to help establish the Whitney Renee Cotton scholarship fund," says Clay Colvard, owner and principal of Colvard Insurance Group.

Utilizing an interactive social media platform and a community-wide email update system, Colvard and his team are building bridges between local civic leaders, educators, and families in an effort to gather support for Whitney's scholarship. The Colvard team will also be producing a feature article with details on the charity drive in an upcoming edition of the firm's webzine "Our Hometown": http://www.colvardinsurance.com/Our-Hometown-Magazine_39.

Nearly half a dozen charities across northern Alabama have received direct assistance from the Colvard Insurance Group since the beginning of the year. Colvard and his team recently became members of the "Agents of Change" charity involvement movement, and plan to continue assisting additional Alabama charities at the rate of one every other month.
