Allstate Insurance Agent Matt Mathews, Pomona, NY

Our community is collaborative and resilient because we believe in helping each other – especially during times of need. I am honored to support Meals on Wheels Programs & Services of Rockland Inc and its efforts to enhance the wellness of Rockland's older adults and their families by providing services that support their safety, independence and health. As a volunteer, I earned a $1,000 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands grant for the organization. The funds will help Meals on Wheels Programs & Services of Rockland Inc to support people in the Pomona community.

Domestic violence is an issue affecting every community in the country, including ours. As volunteers with Center for Safety and Change, we recently helped the organization receive a $19,000 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands in the Community grant to support the organization’s efforts to help women affected by domestic violence. We’re proud to be one of thousands of Allstate agencies around the country rallying together to support domestic violence programs, so they can help victims reclaim their independence.
