Since 2005, the Arbella Insurance Foundation, is committed to supporting local, nonprofit organizations who work hard to make a positive difference in the lives of the people of New England. We are proud to be recognized as a top corporate giver in Massachusetts, and work hard to help our neighbors in need.
The mission of the Arbella Insurance Foundation is to engage in activities, and to support not-for-profit organizations, that have a significant positive impact on the people and communities served by Arbella.
We understand that we cannot make such a positive impact without the active involvement and support of our employees and our independent insurance agents.
Arbella and its employees are committed to fighting hunger -- and this year is our 5th year participating in Project Bread - The Walk for Hunger. Check out this video that chronicles our efforts over the last five years!
In addition to matching gift and charity donation programs, Arbella Insurance Group employees are able to take advantage of a number of workday volunteer opportunities in their communities throughout each year.
Our independent insurance agents, who also play an integral role in their communities, partner with the foundation to generously give their time and donations to organizations that support families and individuals in need.
The foundation is currently granting donations to organizations with whom we have an established relationship, and to those we invite to submit an application. Please understand that due to the volume of inquiries we are unable to respond to individual requests.
