Allstate Agency Owners Host Donation Drives in Long Island-Area

Hauppauge, N.Y., Dec. 6, 2017 – Long Island-area Allstate agency owners are teaming up to host a county-wide supply drive to benefit L.I. Against Domestic Violence. The donations will support the nonprofit’s mission to help over 14,000 Long Island adults and children each year to escape from abusive relationships and build new lives. The supply drive is part of a multi-region Allstate Foundation Purple Purse® donation effort that will benefit domestic violence nonprofits throughout Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington D.C. and West Virginia.

Now through December 11, the public can participate by donating personal care items, women’s clothing essentials (socks, sweatpants, leggings, etc.), children’s items (diapers, bottles, baby wipes, toys, etc.), housewares and gift cards. A complete list of most-needed supplies can be found here: http://bit.ly/AllstateFoundationCentralIslip.

Through their volunteer efforts, each participating Long Island-area Allstate agency owner will secure a $1,000 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands® grant. The National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV) will accept the grants and distribute the funding to local domestic violence nonprofits.

“As small business owners and community leaders, these Allstate agency owners see firsthand the opportunities and challenges facing the communities they serve,” said New York Region Allstate spokesperson Kayla Taylor. “Giving back is core to who they are as agency owners, which is why they’re proud to volunteer and raise funds to support survivors of domestic violence and their families across the Long Island.”
