Community members are invited to visit participating Allstate agencies to receive free disaster preparedness kits and local information

The Times

Disasters affect nearly one million people each year, yet 85 percent of Americans are unprepared for one. As the peak of the active Atlantic hurricane season arrives, Allstate agency owners will help raise awareness about the importance of being prepared and ensure local families are prepared if a disaster strikes.

From Aug. 11–17, community members are invited to stop by one of 31 Allstate agency owners’ offices (listed below) to pick up a free Allstate Foundation starter disaster preparedness kit, while supplies last. The kits include a first aid kit, an emergency blanket, and a flashlight, among other essential items, including local resources from the American Red Cross to help prepare.

More information can be found on the campaign website: https://conta.cc/2O6L4NU.

Through their volunteer efforts, Allstate agency owners can earn an Allstate Foundation Helping Hands grant for the American Red Cross of Southeastern Pennsylvania. The grant will help strengthen the organization’s ability to deliver critical emergency relief to families in need. Each year, thousands of organizations receive Allstate Foundation Helping Hands grants secured by Allstate volunteers for the nonprofits where they volunteer. The grants empower organizations addressing youth empowerment, domestic violence, disaster preparedness, hunger and other causes.
