Board Member Spotlight: Mark Legaspi

Second Chances

Mark Legaspi is the President of Legaspi Associates since its inception in 1998. It was founded for the purpose of offering superior quality service within the Life Insurance market. Mark has established himself as a top notched, service oriented professional. He focuses on areas of Deferred Compensation, Key Man Insurance, Buy Sell Agreements and Long Term Care as well as tax advantaged programs for both businesses and individuals.

He has been chairing the Long Island Board for the last four years, bringing his leadership and energy to our growing programs.  He got involved in charitable giving partly becaise "I was in a serious motorcycle accident ten years ago. I shouldn’t be here. I shouldn’t be alive."  He first got involved in a program for kids who were the victims of domestic violence, bringing his expertise in finance to that organization, but decided he wanted to work with a larger organization  with greater outreach.

"I wanted to give back, you know I’m the one that always brings checks especially for life iinsurance, you know to people to families.  Since I’m alive, I have a second chance of life, and I wanted to be the person who brought a check while the recipient was still with us. Whenever I visit the kids at one of our facilities, I know I've done something important"

Mark is the cornerstone of our Long Island golf events, a key fundraiser and participant, with this year's upcoming event at Port Jefferson.
