With tornado season starting today, here's a look back at some of the good work Farmers Insurance, and its preferred charity, The March of Dimes, did last year. That time it was Alabama. We'll keep you updated on this years coming relief efforts.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to those effected in Missouri, Illinois, and other Midwest states.

The March of Dimes and Farmers Insurance Partnership reaches far beyond the annual fundraisers, many of whom are going on over the next few months. See blog of recent March for Babies Events.

The March of Dimes is working with Farmers Insurance in the disaster relief in the Southern United States in the wake of the tornadoes and storms these last few weeks. Together they are providing maternity and infant supplies, as well as valuable information to some of the most vulnerable of the victims.
The March of Dimes has mobilized its network of volunteers and sponsors to help pregnant women and families with infants cope with the aftermath of Alabama tornadoes, in coordination with Farmers Insurance.
On site at Home Depot in Tuscaloosa, AL, the Farmers Response Vehicle and March of Dimes Mom & Baby Mobile Health Center are distributing maternity clothes, diapers, wipes and other essentials for pregnant women and infants donated to the March of Dimes specifically for emergency assistance to all residents.
“The resources we have been able to gather to take care of some of the most vulnerable in our community are the little bit of silver lining in the cloud of this terrible situation,” says Jane Massey, March of Dimes executive vice-president and chief operating officer. “Their needs have brought out the best in people who have responded generously and I want to thank Kmart for their contributions of maternity and infant supplies.”
The March of Dimes has brochures addressed specifically to help pregnant women and anyone caring for a newborn during an emergency. The March of Dimes Web site www.marchofdimes.com also has timely and relevant information about food, water, breastfeeding and infant formula, and stress. Farmers Insurance is generously helping to distribute these brochures to families in need.
The brochures and Web site also list the symptoms of both preterm and normal labor. Stress, a risk factor for preterm labor, is increased during an emergency. It’s vital that all pregnant women in affected areas in Alabama know to seek medical care immediately if they have any of the symptoms of labor.
If you would like to help in the efforts to support pregnant women and families with infants in Alabama, please contact the March of Dimes Alabama chapter.
It's because of moments like this that the Farmers Agents who are members of the Platinum Elite are proud to say...
