JLT & ACE Insurance in Melbourne have combined to provide an annual sponsorship package for an initiative by Australian Volunteers International (AVI) in the Philippines. The sponsorship covers the twelve month living costs for a Volunteer Manager in Manilla, who is responsible for developing and maintaining a youth training and education programme for underprivileged children.

"JLT is proud to be associated with the work of AVI, who provide opportunities for Australians to become volunteers and to share in a vision of creating a peaceful and just world," said Andrew Nicholl, General Manager of JLT Retail Melbourne.

AVI is one of JLT's longest standing Melbourne customers, and ACE the insurer currently underwriting their international travel and expatriate insurance program. AVI itself is the oldest volunteer organisation of its kind in Australia, having established operations in 1951. Today, more than 700 Australian men and women annually participate in international skill and development programs internationally.
