Allstate Employees Partner Together for Bring out the Good Month in Madison

Madison Allstate employees partner together with St. Hubert's Animal Welfare Center

“At Allstate, we believe in improving lives and making communities stronger,” says Stephen Onorio, Allstate Event Leader.


Throughout April, Allstate employees and agency owners across the country volunteered their time to address pressing social needs.

Recently, Madison-based Allstate employees and agency owners banded together with St. Hubert's Animal Welfare Center. The Allstate volunteers’ mission was to take on the animal center’s dedication to the humane treatment of animals. The volunteer project was part of Allstate’s annual Bring Out the Good Month. Held in April, Bring Out the Good Month encourages Allstate employees to volunteer for and donate to causes they care about in their local communities.

This volunteer project was one of hundreds supported by nearly 13,000 Allstaters. Together, Allstate employees and agency owners also raised more than $7 million for more than 8,000 nonprofit organizations.

“Bring Out the Good Month has special meaning for Allstaters,” adds Onorio. “It’s a time we can come together around the country to volunteer for the causes we’re passionate about and help staff soup kitchens, mentor youth and beautify community spaces. Supporting others is truly our purpose and it’s a source of pride for us.”

St. Hubert’s provides a variety of community services, including pet adoption, humane education, a pet food pantry, low-cost spay/neuter of community cats, a pet helpline, and a professional education series.

In addition to volunteering during Allstate’s Bring Out the Good Month, Allstaters are encouraged to support local nonprofits throughout the year. In 2016, Allstate employees and agency owners donated 230,000 volunteer hours and supported more than 8,800 nonprofits with monetary donations.
