\"Chad<\/a>Presque Isle, Maine<\/strong>\u2014Wintergreen Arts Center recently received a $1,000.00 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands Grant.\u00a0 The grant was made possible through the community service of local Allstate Agent Chad Brewer.<\/p>\n

Brewer volunteers as a Conductor for the Center\u2019s very popular annual Wintergreen Express holiday event in December.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you to Allstate volunteer Chad Brewer for being a positive force for change in our community by volunteering with us,\u201d said Kim Guerrette Michaud, chairman of Wintergreen\u2019s Board of Directors.\u00a0 \u201cWe appreciate Chad\u2019s efforts that enabled us to receive an Allstate Foundation Helping Hands Grant.\u00a0 Chad helps make the Wintergreen Express, our largest holiday event, a truly magical experience for local children and their families.\u201d<\/p>\n

This grant is the second Allstate Foundation Helping Hands Grant Wintergreen has received in less than a year.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are a Wintergreen family,\u201d said Brewer, who lives in Presque Isle with his wife Lisa and their two daughters.\u00a0 \u201cI know how important volunteers are in achieving the Center\u2019s mission to encourage creativity and the arts in Aroostook County.\u00a0 So, it is great to see Wintergreen\u2019s programs directly benefit from this Helping Hands Grant.\u201d<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n
