That mission resonates deeply with Salvati Insurance Group President Thomas Salvati and his wife, Lisa, who believe strongly in the responsibility to support children and families in need. The agency has partnered with House of Providence since 2011, helping advance its mission through financial support, volunteer efforts, and community advocacy.
Salvati Insurance Group supports House of Providence year-round through charitable contributions and hands-on involvement. The agency hosts and sponsors multiple annual charity golf outings that bring together clients, business partners, and community members, generating tens of thousands of dollars each year for the organization. Beyond fundraising, the team actively promotes House of Providence’s mission, connects potential donors with the nonprofit, and works to ensure continued awareness and support throughout the community. Agency staff members have also assembled back-to-school backpacks for children living in House of Providence’s residential homes.

One moment, in particular, has stayed with Thomas over the years. During a charity golf outing, the impact of the agency’s support became clear when House of Providence staff received the event’s donation and expressed their gratitude for what it would mean for the children they serve.
“We’re not just raising money,” said Thomas Salvati. “We’re creating real impact and giving these kids opportunities they wouldn’t otherwise have.”
For the Salvati Insurance Group team, supporting House of Providence means helping children find stability, encouragement, and opportunities to thrive while ensuring they have access to the resources and care needed to build brighter futures.
“Recognizing independent agents’ dedication to their communities and nonprofit partners is what the Make More Happen Awards are all about,” said Jeffrey McBride, Senior Territory Manager, Liberty Mutual Insurance. “Salvati Insurance Group’s commitment to House of Providence demonstrates the meaningful difference local businesses can make in creating opportunities and providing support for vulnerable children.”
Throughout 2026, Liberty Mutual Insurance will select up to 36 independent agencies nationwide for a Make More Happen Award, donating up to $360,000 to nonprofits they support. Agencies become eligible for the award by submitting applications that highlight their commitment to a specific cause.
