SCARBOROUGH — Champoux Insurance Agency has earned a 2022 Make More Happen Award, which recognizes its exceptional volunteerism with Make-A-Wish Maine, based in Scarborough, and its commitment to making a positive community impact. The award includes an initial $5,000 donation with a chance to double the amount to $10,000 that will directly benefit Make-A-Wish Maine, a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing hope, strength and joy to children with life-threatening medical conditions.
The story of Champoux Insurance Agency and Make-A-Wish Maine began being spotlighted on the official Make More Happen microsite at www.agentgiving.com/Champoux-Insurance-Agency on Oct. 1. There supporters can vote through Oct. 31 to help the team reach their donation goal. If the featured story receives at least 500 votes — shares to social media and comments on their story —the donation will be increased to $10,000. Make-A-Wish Maine serves children in 16 counties and this $10,000 donation will allow them to grant one wish to a child in their own state who has been diagnosed with a critical illness.
“This organization profoundly helps children with lifelong illnesses have moments and memories that put a smile on their face and Champoux Insurance Agency is truly honored to advocate for their great cause,” said Kacey LePage, account executive for Champoux Insurance Agency. “We are forever grateful to receive this Make More Happen Award from Liberty Mutual and Safeco to provide Make-A-Wish Maine with much needed funds to continue their impactful work.”
LePage began her journey with Make-A-Wish Maine seven years ago starting as an event volunteer. She now sits on the board for the annual Summer Block Party committee and is a wish granter — helping make dreams come true for children across the state. LePage’s team members also volunteer their time and assist with fundraising efforts to support local wishes.
“It warms our hearts to see the endless dedication our agents have for their nonprofit partners through their volunteering, fundraising and overall awareness efforts,” said Stephanie Davis Safeco Insurance Northeast Region senior territory manager. “The Make More Happen Awards allow our agents to make an even greater impact in Maine and we hope it motivates others to do the same.”
Throughout 2022, Liberty Mutual and Safeco Insurance will select up to 37 independent agents nationwide for a Make More Happen Award donating up to $370,000 to the nonprofits they support. Agencies became eligible for the award by submitting an application and photos demonstrating their commitment to a specific nonprofit.
