The Allstate Foundation is supporting survivors of domestic violence and financial abuse by seeking donations of critically needed supplies. My agency is collecting items for Safe+Sound Somerset. If you’d like to help, drop off requested supplies by Nov. 16. One in four women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime. Allstate Foundation Purple Purse® is dedicated to breaking the cycle of violence through financial empowerment. Click the “Learn More” link for more details on how to support the drive.

Now through December 10, our office will collect supplies to benefit the New Jersey Coalition to End Domestic Violence. Stop by to donate and help domestic violence survivors in our community through The Allstate Foundation Purple Purse campaign!

Domestic violence is an issue affecting every community in the country, including ours. As volunteers with New Jersey Coalition Against Domestic Violence, we recently helped the organization receive a $44,000 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.
