Fourteen Allstate agency owners and financial specialists from across Long Island came together to secure a $14,000 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands in the Community grant to benefit Shootout for Soldiers, a 24-hour lacrosse event.
Allstaters came together to volunteer and support The Shootout for Soldiers organization benefiting Long Island veterans. Funds raised during this lacrosse event were used to give a voice to local veterans and help engage the community on issues that matter to military families, and helps build bridges of understanding and empathy between military and civilian communities. The original funding goal of the Shootout for Soldiers was $50,000, but the organization raised more than $100,000 to benefit local veterans!
