People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you CARE. Words alone can’t express how much we care about and love our local community, so we developed State Insurance Cares- Designed to help our local community. Each month State Insurance USA provides a “Love One Another” Donation to a charity nominated by our clients and partners. To view all our past community donations please see below.
