At Ellis Insurance Agency, giving back to our community isn’t just something we talk about; it’s part of who we are. Recently, we had the opportunity to partner with Safeco/Liberty Mutual in a unique and meaningful way, turning a business accomplishment into an unforgettable act of service.
As part of our ongoing collaboration, Safeco/Liberty Mutual challenged us to reach certain business goals. When we achieved them, instead of accepting the reward for ourselves, we decided to do something different. Something bigger. Something fun.
Introducing… the EIA Grocery Games!
With the support of Safeco/Liberty Mutual, our team brainstormed a creative and energetic way to give back: a Grocery Games contest! We split into two teams here at EIA and headed to our local H-E-B to shop for a cause, focusing on purchasing the items most needed on the SA Food Bank’s list.
The rules were simple:
Each team had to get as close to $500 as possible — without going over.
It was fast, it was competitive, and it was a blast.
In the end, both teams came incredibly close, and together we purchased $1,000 worth of food, totaling 480 pounds — all donated directly to the San Antonio Food Bank.
A First in Texas
We’re proud to share that Ellis Insurance Agency is the only agency in Texas to give back their business-goal reward in this way. Because of this, the Safeco/Liberty Mutual team joined us in-store, filming and photographing the entire experience. They plan to share a highlight reel soon, so stay tuned!
A Heartfelt Thank You
We couldn’t have done this without our amazing EIA family who brings passion and purpose to everything we do. And a huge thank you to our partners at Safeco/Liberty Mutual for embracing our idea and helping us make a real impact while having a whole lot of fun in the process.
Community matters. Creativity matters. And at EIA, we’re proud to continue leading with both.
Stay tuned for the video and thank you for supporting Ellis Insurance Agency!
