November is here, and that means it is peak deer season. Avid hunters rejoice while motorists take warning now that mornings and evening commutes are bathed in darkness. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, “Animal-strike-related insurance claims are more than twice as frequent as the yearly average in November, when the search for a mate keeps the big bucks on the move, according to an analysis of claims from 2006 to 2018 conducted by the Highway Loss Data Institute. The severity of claims, measured in dollars insurers pay to cover losses, also soars during the peak month. The average cost of November animal-strike claims over the 13-year period was $3,560, compared with $2,801 for February, the month with the least severe crashes.”

Guttman Helps Cougars “Stuff-the-Bus”

On August 12 ^th Guttman Energy and its employees wrapped their month long participation in the Charleroi Area School Districts’ “Stuff-the-Bus” supply drive. Employees participated by donating school supplies to give to students for this upcoming school year. The campaign was started last year by Charleroi Area School Board Director Thomas Nutting as a birthday gift to himself. According to the Mon Valley Independent, “His personal birthday project began last year on his 70 ^th birthday. Instead of gifts for himself, he asked his friends and family to bring gifts of school supplies to his party to stuff backpacks for students in need.” Engagement in the local community has always been an important cultural facet for Guttman Energy and its employees, many of which were eager to jump at the opportunity to participate not only in collection, but the set up and distribution of the school supplies.

Guttman has created a Brand Ambassador Team consisting of volunteers from each of its many departments. The job of the Brand Ambassador Team is to find opportunities for employee and company engagement in projects like the “Stuff-the-Bus” supply drive. When asked how the Brand Ambassador Team chose this campaign BAT team member, Markee Bittner said, “We chose the “Stuff-the-Bus” supply drive because we wanted to help a local organization provide the best possible chance for success for the next generation of local students.” We would like to take this opportunity to thank our many wonderful employees for their successful participation in this fun community service activity.
