Donor Profile

Michael Beckerman, CPCU

 

Q. What is your insurance origin story?

My dad started Beckerman & Company after leaving another agency he co-founded when I was 6 years old. After getting some experience at another agency following college, I joined him in 2006. We were later acquired by Acrisure. 

Q. What first sparked your interest in supporting the Agents Advocacy Coalition and its causes?

Our agency has always been supportive of PIA. My dad served as president from 2004-05, so contributing to New Jersey PIAPAC is a natural extension of that support. It’s a great way to make sure agents have a voice in Trenton and that PIA’s initiatives are heard.

Q. In your opinion, what are the most important issues or policies the NJPIAPAC is helping to support?

I hope we can finally get the legislation to prohibit step-down provisions in most cases across the finish line. It’s been a long time coming.

Q. If you could give one piece of advice to potential new donors considering supporting the NJPIAPAC, what would it be?

While the average donation to New Jersey PIAPAC is $347, we encourage everyone to donate whatever they can. Our goal is not only to increase the overall amount we raise, but to increase the number of donors.

Q. Lastly, can you give readers one book, movie, or show recommendation?

Shogun on Hulu is my go-to.
