\"\"Recognizing the urgent need for aid to Haiti, today <\/strong>The Allstate Foundation has made a $50,000 donation to the American Red Cross to assist with humanitarian relief efforts.<\/p>\n

Additionally, with Allstate employees and Agency owners wanting a way to give to the relief efforts in Haiti, the Foundation has created the donation Web site american.redcross.org\/allstate-emp<\/a> in partnership with the American Red Cross that allows employees to make a personal donation directly to the relief organization. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Foundation will match every dollar that employees contribute up to an additional $50,000, for a total commitment of up to $100,000.<\/p>\n
