National Life Group honored with Vogel Alcove’s 2023 Volunteer Award

Addison, TX - (September 7, 2023) National Life Group will be honored with Vogel Alcove’s Ambassador of Hope 2023 Volunteer Award during its Blue Bird Bash event on September 14.

National Life Group Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer Nimesh Mehta will receive the award on behalf of the company.

National Life supports Vogel Alcove, an early childhood development and parent opportunity center for homeless families, through grants from the National Life Group Foundation and community engagement and volunteerism

“National Life is an insurance company with a soul,” National Life Group Chairman, CEO and President Mehran Assadi said. “For 175 years we have been keeping our promises and taking care of our neighbors. It is a privilege to be recognized by Vogel, an organization whose impact is so powerful and far-reaching.”

For the past two years, National Life has hosted a holiday event in December for hundreds of Vogel Alcove children, families and staff. Last year, the event was held at Dallas’ Old City Park and included a holiday meal, horse-drawn carriage rides, a bubble show and other children’s activities and a visit and photo with Santa.

“Vogel is honored to partner with a corporation like National Life that believes in giving back to the community where they operate,” Vogel Alcove President and CEO Karen Hughes said. “Our children and families look forward to the annual holiday reunion event that they sponsor for us each year. The smiles on the children’s faces as they enjoy the wonderful holiday meal, watch the bubble shows, talk to Santa says it all. It is an amazing event that helps to give back to children what homelessness has robbed them of – a joyous childhood and holiday season.”
