CREST is proud to donate $20,000 to Big Brothers Big Sisters AZ!

Our Tempe team traded desks for sponges at the 19th annual Paul’s Car Wash at Desert Ridge Marketplace, then presented our check live on 3TV Arizona’s Family with Paul Horton. This gift renews our sponsorship of the Big Night Out Afterparty for 2026 and 2027, supporting one-to-one mentoring for kids across the Valley.

A huge shout out to Teddy Puccini, AK Guerrero, Sina Ruft, Marcel Bachelier, Lisa Hankal, Jesus Solis, Ashley Elliott and Lauren McCarty for bringing the energy (and the soap buckets).

Want to help? Text WASH to 26989 to donate, or visit bbbsaz.org to become a Big.

We have an exciting announcement! Please see a message from our CEO, Cody Ritchie, below:

“From our standpoint, when we formed Crest in 2010, we wanted to be the brokerage for entrepreneurs and great cultural difference-makers. We wanted a platform that allowed people to have an insurance career rather than just a temporary job.

Our partnership with SIB will allow Crest to operate independently and under our same current ownership structure on the Crest side in the United States. We have secured our immediate future as a leading independent broker in the United States, but our partnership with SIB will allow us to be a major North American insurance broker.
This is an exciting day, but for our Crest employees and customers, it’s business as usual, which, in this current environment, is getting harder to achieve!

To our new Canadian partners, I would like to say it’s a great day, EH! I can say that as I was born in Calgary.

To our Crest team and customers in the USA, we are still in charge under our current ownership structure, and together we can provide best-in-practice strategies for our employees and clients.”
