Peggy Ann is an active member of the Youth Aid Panel in Montgomery County, PA. The Youth Aid Panel provides a second chance for non-violent juveniles that have committed a criminal offense by linking them with a support group that encourages them to accept responsibility for their actions and get involved in the community. Peggy Ann has been involved with this program since it was established by the District Attorney's Office in 2000, and she has positively impacted the lives of numerous adolescents. In June, the Montgomery County Youth Aid Panel recognized her with the "Recognition of Excellence" Award for her dedication and outstanding service on the panel.

She understands the importance of being the initial contact and always treats the customer as if they were her own family or friends.

Jeff uses the skills and network he has built as a claims adjuster to make a difference in his community. He leads a volunteer group made up of Allstate claims adjusters, Allstate agents, Allstate approved repair vendors and national vendors to make a difference in the community. The group is on their fifth year of the community service project that they've named, "Community Resurrection Partnership." In the first two years, the group remodeled two homes for families in the community that were in need.

More recently, they built two playgrounds for a local community center that offers outreach programs for children and families. The collaboration, leadership and dedication of this extended Allstate family have made a huge impact on the Indianapolis community.
