'TREE2' Campaign Restores Pines to Katrina-Stricken Areas; Encourages Paperless Bill-Paying Among Customers
CINCINNATI, June 23 /PRNewswire/ -- American Modern Insurance Group
combines tree conservation and restoration in its new TREE2 initiative, a
national campaign appealing to the environmental conscience of new and
existing customers.
The project from the 45-year-old specialty insurer is designed to save
trees by encouraging customers to convert to electronic billing and payment.
At the same time, the company will restore several thousand longleaf pines in
areas destroyed by hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005.
'A number of companies are promoting the move to paperless billing, and
tying it to some type of 'green' initiative,' said American Modern Senior Vice
President Dennis Robich. 'The difference in American Modern's TREE2
initiative is that we're concentrating solely on replanting areas that have
lost their trees to catastrophic weather events.'
American Modern Insurance Group offers a variety of residential and
recreational insurance products through six property and casualty
subsidiaries. Initially specializing in coverage for mobile and manufactured
homes, the company still counts this market as its mainstay among a wide range
of personal lines insurance offerings.
In an ambitious environmental outreach that will include parks, schools
and other public properties in three states affected by the storms, American
Modern is working in conjunction with The Longleaf Alliance, an affiliate of
Auburn University.

'American Modern has always been the company that continues to work for
its customers after the claim is paid,' Robich noted. 'TREE2 fills an
important need in an area that is typically challenging to insurance
providers. A company can hardly make a much more altruistic contribution than
that.'
