“The Allstate [Foundation] classes are what helped the most. I would tell anybody: If you are in that situation, you can undo it. If you want to leave, you can do it. There are people who will stand behind you and help you.”

– Parthenia Ferguson, domestic abuse survivor, Kentucky

“Today was my [house] closing! Just to think that a little over a year ago I had no savings, tons of debt, and a credit score under 500 as a result of financial abuse! The Allstate [Foundation] financial empowerment classes helped me on the hard road I've had to walk to get to one of the most accomplished days of my life after leaving domestic violence. A new page has been added to my story of survival.”

– Damaris, domestic abuse survivor and new homeowner, Rhode Island

“We used The Allstate Foundation Moving Ahead Financial Empowerment curriculum and taught an interactive money management class for the past eight weeks. There was excellent, positive feedback. Most respondents either want to attend again or will encourage a friend or family member to attend. Thank you to The Allstate Foundation for supporting such an important cause in our community.”

– Julie Jakubek, Allstate agency owner, Arizona

“The Allstate Foundation is helping victims find a way out. It’s showing victims there is safety and security through financial empowerment and I think that’s so important.”

– Beverly Gooden, domestic abuse survivor and activist, Atlanta
