Electric Insurance Supports Girls Inc. Lynn's SMART Girls Summit

BEVERLY, MA - (Business Wire) - June 25, 2008 - Five members of the Women's Network of Electric Insurance Company, Beverly, MA volunteered at the 7th annual SMART Girls Summit hosted by Girls Incorporated Lynn at North Shore Community College in June. The SMART (Science, Math and Relevant Technology) Girls Summit introduces at risk, low income girls ages 6-18 to careers in math, science and technology through a series of hands-on workshops.

Electric Insurance employees Maria Deforge, Jocelyn Wegryn, Susan Seaver, Martha Sousa and Patricia Matthews assisted participants and workshop presenters. "I worked in the session taught by Medtronic engineers and learned how to use high-tech devices to implant a catheter and stint through the main artery in the leg all the way to the heart!" said Wegryn. "The girls were enthralled and so were the adults. It was a great experience." Deforge and Seaver helped GE Aviation engineers demonstrate how helicopters work, and helped participants build their own from paper and paperclips to see whose could fly the longest and in the most accurate flight pattern. "The information and products were so fascinating," Deforge said.

The Women's Network at Electric Insurance Company is a voluntary organization dedicated to fostering women's professional development and personal growth. A proud supporter of Girls Incorporated Lynn (www.girlsinclynn.org), Electric Insurance also sponsors the non-profit organization's annual fundraising luncheon.
