Axis Insurance Services is proud to be support CUMAC Echo in Paterson New Jersey. Axis and PL Risk employees have spent the last month gathering food to help the many people who may not otherwise be able to get through the holidays. Together, they were able to donate close to 700 pounds of goods to donate to this organization and were able to deliver it to the food pantry on December 19th.
Mike Smith, CEO of Axis Insurance Services commented on their food drive. “I have supported CUMAC for a very long time, both personally and professionally. Our employees have participated in this drive for several years and continue to impress with how much they donate. We hope to continue our endeavors with this wonderful organization.”

About CUMAC
CUMAC began its mission in the late 1970s when Hugh Dunlop, a Paterson teacher, noticed that his students could not focus in school due to a lack of adequate nutrition. With the helping hands of his church congregation, he began to collect food donations and started to chip away at the problem of hunger with his students and meet their needs. Hugh soon realized that the problem he saw among his students extended far beyond his classroom but was and still is embedded in the community. A small pantry was created in Paterson to start alleviating this burden on individuals and families in his community.
In 1985, the Center of United Methodist Aid to the Community Ecumenically Concerned with Helping Others, CUMAC/ECHO, was incorporated.
