Downers Grove Junior Woman's Club Awarded Allstate Foundation Helping Hands Grant
The Downers Grove Junior Woman’s Club has been awarded a $1,000 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands Grant in honor of the community service of one of our wonderful members, Barbara Ruta.
The Allstate Foundation supports the causes that Allstate agency owners, financial specialists and employees care about most by providing Helping Hands Grants to nonprofits where they volunteer their time to bring out the good in their communities. The Downers Grove Junior Woman’s Club was selected as a partner in providing innovative and lasting solutions to enhance the community’s well-being and prosperity.
Thank you to Allstate volunteer and Downers Grove Junior Woman’s Club member, Barbara Ruta, for being a positive force of change in our community! Together, we #BringOutTheGood.
