This is Derek Miller Speaking on Business. Each year the Salt Lake Chamber presents the Giant in Our City award to a distinguished community leader. To tell us more about this year's recipient, here's Peggy Larsen, a former insurance industry executive who has received numerous awards herself. BETH HOLBROOK I have been going to the Giant in our City events for years. It is one of my favorite evenings where I get to get dressed up, see old friends, and meet new ones. The atmosphere is always electric, and the Salt Lake Chamber does an incredible job honoring the Giant and making their evening special.  I am especially excited this year as we honor Ray Pickup. I worked with him when he was the Chief Financial Officer for WCF Insurance, and then became the CEO and my direct boss.   In addition to managing his company, Ray serves on numerous boards and leads a variety of efforts that make Utah a better place to live.  Whether he is donating time at the local food bank or raising funds for a grant program, Ray Pickup is among the first to lend a helping hand and say, “What can I do to help?”   DEREK MILLER We hope you'll join us for the 43rd Giant in our City award ceremony which will be held on May 19th at the Grand America Hotel.

This is Derek Miller Speaking on Business. For more than one hundred years, WCF Insurance has protected Utah businesses. It began as an innovative approach to insure against financial ruin caused by workplace accidents. Today, that spirit of service and innovation endures, as WCF has led by example during the coronavirus crisis – including a half-million-dollar donation to support small businesses throughout our state. Here's WCF CEO Ray Pickup. RAY PICKUP WCF Insurance was founded by the state of Utah in 1917. Although we now write workers compensation insurance in every state, Utah is our home. We are grateful to be able to serve our community and the businesses we insure. When COVID-19 struck, we heeded the Governor's call to “Stay Safe, Stay Home.” Virtually all our employees are working from home. Through the WCF Foundation, we reached out to provide immediate support to others including money to support housing and healthcare initiatives and provide personal protective equipment for healthcare workers. We worked with Silicon Slopes on TestUtah.com. This grant to the Chamber is to support small businesses during this crisis. DEREK MILLER The grant from WCF came with only one condition: help small businesses, and it will be used to provide urgent assistance before federal funding arrives. This is the spirit of giving—the spirit of innovation and leadership that elevates life in Utah. I'm Derek Miller with the Salt Lake Chamber, and this is Speaking on Business.
