Oct. 25, 2010 - PRLog -- Allstate agency owner Lina Bennardo was recently named an Agent Hero by Allstate Insurance Company’s New York Region, and awarded a $500 grant for a local youth program.

Bennardo donated the grant to the Federation of Italian-American Organizations of Brooklyn (FIAO), to be used to support their afterschool, sports and drug-prevention programs.

“As an Allstate agent, I believe it is my responsibility to demonstrate the Good Hands Promise in the Brooklyn community every single day,” said Bennardo, whose office is located at 1904 86th Street. “It is an honor to be able to donate this grant to FIAO and hopefully touch the lives of the kids who are involved.”
