Thanks to the communities’ support, Manzanita Insurance has officially awarded a $10,000 donation to Northern Arizona Astronomical Consortium (NAZ Astro), a local organization dedicated to bringing STEM education to the underserved students of Northern Arizona. The $10,000 award will help fund NAZ’s plan to start a STEM Education Center which will become a place for middle and high school students to experiment with telescopes, 3D printers, drones, and open-source hardware and software including Arduino.
Adam England, Manzanita Insurance Owner, originally received a $5,000 donation for NAZ Astro thanks to a submission process with Liberty Mutual® and Safeco Insurance® through their 2023 Make More Happen™ Awards. A story of their local partnership was featured on the official Make More Happen microsite . Manzanita Insurance had the opportunity to raise an additional $5,000 by conducting a local awareness campaign for the nonprofit. Together with the community, the goal was met increasing the total donation to $10,000 for NAZ Astro!
Throughout 2023, 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.
