We look for unique opportunities to promote safety, economic education and diversity to help ensure that individuals have nurturing communities to support them.

In 2006 The Allstate Corporation and The Allstate Foundation awarded funding to the Chicago Children’s Museum and the Museum of Science and Industry. Our combined corporate and Foundation support will help coordinate science programs and resources geared towards youths, from preschool to the 12th grade, to fuel interest in learning and exploration.

Allstate’s $15 million gift to the Chicago Children's Museum will be paid over the next 10 years to help build a state-of-the-art learning facility, to be located in the Daley Bicentennial Plaza in Millennium Park. The funds will also support ongoing programming at the Museum. Allstate's gift will help the Children's Museum nearly double its existing footprint to 100,000 square feet. The facility, which will help anchor an unparalleled cultural center in Chicago's Millennium Park, will be named the Chicago Children's Museum at Allstate Place.

Allstate’s $10 million gift to the Museum of Science and Industry will be paid over the next five years to build an innovative exhibit that will focus on chemistry, physics and nano-technology. Allstate will fund a two-story, basic-science exhibit geared toward older children and focused on scientific applications in everyday environments. The exhibit will be located in the museum's West Court, which will be renamed Allstate Court.
