There’s no need to explain State Farm when you’re talking about insurance. The brand will sell itself. I think the biggest reward for me is the personal satisfaction that I’m running my own business.

State Farm® Teams With Habitat for Humanity® To Ensure Homes Are Equipped For Disabled Veterans

SAN FRANCISCO, May 21, 2010 – As crowds cheer on the State Farm Sea to Shining Sea riders, their efforts will do more than just rally the riders. These supporters will also be helping to raise money to ensure future Habitat for Humanity homes have the features necessary to be fully equipped for use by disabled veterans.

“It’s a long ride across America and a sustained show of support and encouragement will help motivate these riders as they make the arduous 4,000 mile trek,” said Joe Formusa, Senior Vice President, State Farm Insurance. “While State Farm agents and other supporters will be there to cheer riders and welcome them to cities and towns big and small, we wanted to do even more. And thanks to our relationship with Habitat for Humanity, now participants in this ride will be able to leave behind a legacy that helps disabled veterans for years to come.”

For every person signing a traveling banner of support at ride stops, State Farm will donate $1, up to $100,000, to fund installation of accessibility features such as ramps, low-hanging cabinets and special kitchen and bathroom fixtures in Habitat houses being built with veterans and their families.

The Sea to Shining Sea team of exceptional athletes, many of whom are wounded Iraq and Afghanistan veterans representing all military branches, will depart from the Golden Gate Bridge on Saturday, May 22 for World T.E.A.M. Sports’ inaugural bike trek across America . The goal of Sea to Shining Sea is to honor the courage of our service men and women, recognize the strength of the American spirit and challenge perceptions of how we view athletes. The ride will conclude in Virginia Beach on July 24.

The cyclists will test their physical limits and inspire people, disabled or not, to live active and enriched lives. The group will cycle through deserts, mountain passes and historical landmarks providing dramatic proof that disabled Americans can lead productive lives and accomplish feats most people only dream about.

State Farm is proud to sponsor the Sea to Shining Sea ride across America as a way to show support for service men and women and their commitment to being there for our country. In addition to funding, State Farm agents across the country will be there for all 63 days of the Sea to Shining Sea ride, serving as community coordinators -- providing local information, helping with logistics and route planning, and rallying folks to turn out to celebrate the riders along the way.
