CHICAGO, June 3, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today, EIIA, a Member-owned not-for-profit consortium serving the insurance and risk management needs of private higher education institutions for over 50 years, introduced their new logo, a fitting new brandmark.
The encased tree represents EIIA's solid foundation and rich history, collaborative spirit of the consortium and innovation as they branch upward and outward to grow and protect their Members. The EIIA letters are centered by two pillars that symbolize their support for higher education. The colors orange and blue represent courage, confidence, trust and strength. Together, like a tree, they depict resilience in the face of challenges.
EIIA's roots date back to the early 1960s when they were formed to provide property and casualty insurance to five historically black colleges affiliated with the United Methodist Church that were unable to secure the coverage individually. Since then, EIIA has grown to serve over 150 faith-inspired private institutions of higher education throughout the nation. With the support of two well-funded insurance captives, EIIA strongly represents their Members in the marketplace to develop specialized property & casualty, student insurance and employee benefit programs that meet the changing needs of private higher education.
"As we worked with Members to understand what drives our success, our history of faith connectedness combined with our innovation and expertise clearly stood out," said Jeff Wolf, President at EIIA. "We needed an image that reflected those qualities in a cohesive manner. We believe that the Tree of Life symbol captures everything about us."
"It is through member-collaboration that we have acquired our higher education expertise. We meet with our members on a regular basis to address insurance risks on campus," says Mary Ellen Moriarty, Vice President for Property & Casualty.
EIIA is excited about their new logo which is further explained in their 2018 Annual Report. Visit the EIIA website at http://www.eiia.org to view a copy and learn more about their membership and programs.
