Crossroads for Kids Receives $50,000 Grant as Part of Arbella Insurance Foundation’s “50 to 25” Program

The Arbella Insurance Foundation (“Foundation”) has awarded a grant of $50,000 to Crossroads for Kids as part of its “50 to 25” program, which presented one-time grants of $50,000 to 25 local charities throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Connecticut. “50 to 25” was created in recognition of the Arbella Insurance Group (“Arbella”)’s 25th anniversary and the important role the Foundation plays in supporting the communities Arbella serves.  The charity was nominated for the grant by Peabody Resident and Arbella Employee, Paul Cambria.

The Foundation’s Selection Committee chose the 25 recipient charities from proposals thoughtfully submitted by Arbella employees, independent insurance agents and longtime charitable partners.  Checks were presented to the selected charities at a celebratory luncheon in Quincy on September 10th. The selected charities are involved in social services, health and/or education.

“We’re proud to be celebrating Arbella’s 25th anniversary this year,” said John Donohue, chairman, president and CEO of the Arbella Insurance Group and chairman and president of the Arbella Insurance Foundation. “In recognition of that milestone and the important role Arbella’s Foundation plays in supporting our communities, we wanted to do something that would have a real impact in our communities. I can’t imagine a better way to celebrate Arbella’s 25 years of serving New England than to recognize the charities that are helping to make this region thrive.”
