Legacy of Caring Grant Awarded to Westside Community Center
Arthur Hall Insurance Helps Westside Community Center to Empower Youth Leadership
Westfield’s Legacy of Caring Program Partners with Westfield Insurance Agencies to Support Dozens of Nonprofits Across the Country
West Chester, PA June, 2024— Westfield partnered with Arthur Hall Insurance to donate $7,500 to Westside Community Center as part of Westfield’s Legacy of Caring program. Each year, Westfield’s top independent insurance agents are invited to nominate a local nonprofit in their community to receive a donation. Donations are made to dozens of nonprofits in cities across Westfield’s national footprint.
The Westfield Insurance Foundation, an independent private foundation endowed by Westfield, awards the donations to support their top agents’ local communities. Since 2015, the Legacy of Caring program supports nonprofits focused on helping families or businesses stabilize or recover from disasters – mirroring what the insurance industry does every day for their customers.
“As Westfield enters our 176th year, we achieved this longevity by generations of employees and agents working together, committed to preserving and propelling our communities forward.” said Ed Largent, Westfield president, CEO, board chair and Westfield Insurance Foundation chairman. “Westfield continues to build on the strong commitment of caring that the founders of our company imagined. It’s a great feeling to link arms with our agents and make an impact.”
“We believe in the shared responsibility to help strengthen the communities we call home,” said Agency Principal and Vice President, Personal Lines Nicole C. Grebloskie, CAPI, CPRM, CIC, CISR. “We are proud of our collaboration with Westfield and the collective impact to critically important initiatives, such as those provided by Westside Community Center. We are honored to support The Westside Community Center and their mission to help empower families and today’s youth through the programs and services that they provide.”
“The Westside Community Center exists to empower families and youth academically, socially, and spiritually, empowering them to take on leadership roles in their community,” says Westside Community Center Executive Director, Ryan Enns. “The Westfield Legacy of Caring Grant Award will greatly strengthen our ability to provide programs and services that prioritize both relationships and our mission. We are grateful for the support of businesses like Arthur Hall Insurance, as they play a crucial role in enabling us to effectively serve our community.”
At Westfield, it’s about more than writing insurance policies, it’s about going above and beyond to help communities thrive and prosper. Offering support that reflects these values is at the core of the Westfield Insurance Foundation. Westfield is proud to partner with independent agents through the Legacy of Caring program.
