Thanks to the communities’ support, Kneflin Dillhoff Hils & Kruse Agency (KDHK) Insurance has officially awarded a $10,000 donation to Down Syndrome Association of Greater Cincinnati (DSAGC), a local organization dedicated to empowering individuals, educating families, enhancing communities and together, celebrating the extraordinary lives of people with Down syndrome. The $10,000 award will help DSAGC to continue to provide each child with a variety of services including educational and therapy programs and recreational and social activities. The funds would also provide support and resources to each family that has a child with Down syndrome.

Joyce Unkraut, Personal Lines Account Manager for KDHK Insurance, originally received a $5,000 donation for DSAGC thanks to a submission process with Liberty Mutual® and Safeco Insurance® through their 2022 Make More Happen™ Awards. A story of their local partnership was featured on the official Make More Happen microsite, www.agentgiving.com/KDHK-Insurance, where KDHK Insurance had the opportunity to raise an additional $5,000 by conducting a local awareness campaign for the nonprofit. Together with the community, the goal was met increasing the total donation to $10,000 for DSAGC!

Throughout 2022, Liberty Mutual® and Safeco Insurance® will select up to 37 independent agents nationwide for a Make More Happen Award and Liberty Mutual® and Safeco Insurance® will donate up to $370,000 to the nonprofits supported by independent insurance agents. Agencies became eligible for the award by submitting an application and photos demonstrating their commitment to a specific nonprofit.
