Spring Hill, Tenn. — The Union Sportsmen’s Alliance (USA) proudly announces that founding partner Union Labor Life Insurance Company (ULLICO) of Washington, D.C., has received the organization’s prestigious Diamond Life Corporate Achievement Award.

The award is presented to industry partners and other allies that have surpassed the $1 million donor mark in supporting the USA’s mission to unite the union community through conservation to preserve North America’s outdoor heritage.

Along with sponsoring the USA Shooting Tour and USA Conservation Dinner program, ULLICO is also a long-time backer of the organization’s Fundraising Gala.

“ULLICO has always been an amazing partner to union members, labor unions and the Union Sportsmen’s Alliance,” said USA CEO and Executive Director Scott Vance. “In the field and behind the scenes, their leadership and staff have been strong and valuable allies, and ULLICO’s continued support helps form the foundation from which we have successfully advanced the USA’s mission impact and goals.”

“A great number of union members and their families enjoy hunting, fishing and outdoor recreation,” said Edward Smith, ULLICO president and CEO. “They also share a passion for conserving and preserving our outdoor heritage, just as they share the bond of brotherhood and sisterhood in the labor movement.

“In honor of their commitment to preserving our natural resources and their desire to introduce others to the wonders of the outdoors, ULLICO became one of the original partners of the Union Sportsmen’s Alliance," Smith continued. "And it’s a partnership we look forward to keeping for a long time to come.”
