C&F earned gold for its 200th anniversary producer and partner event at Ellis Island, and silver for its exceptional year-long, weekly internal communications email campaign known as "200th Tuesdays". The awards were presented at the IMCA Ignite 2023 Annual Conference, held June 19-21 in Nashville, TN.

Bush, singer-songwriter Sara McLachlan, and Prem Watsa, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited.
In addition, C&F's 200th Tuesdays internal communications email campaign explored and celebrated the company's remarkable 200-year history, and fostered a sense of pride as employees learned about milestones, innovations and progress through the years – even gamifying the engagement with trivia competitions throughout the year.
