Des Moines-based life and annuity company F&G announced it will donate a van to EveryStep to replace a van that was stolen and damaged in a break-in at an Urbandale warehouse being used for packing and wrapping of the nonprofit’s Cheer Boxes. “We are proud to be able to enable the good work of EveryStep, especially the Amanda the Panda program, which provides comfort and support to members of our community coping with loss and grief this holiday season,” said F&G CEO Chris Blunt. The van and EveryStep’s truck were recovered by police on Nov. 17, but both vehicles suffered significant damage. F&G will replace the van, which is used for many community services, including EveryStep Grief & Loss Services programs like Amanda the Panda, which oversees the Cheer Box program. In addition to the Cheer Box program, Amanda the Panda uses the van extensively during its grief camps for children and families. F&G employees are also frequent volunteers with EveryStep and spent hours wrapping Cheer Boxes earlier this month. Donations for the unexpected cost of replacing the Cheer Box gifts and other items may be made at www.everystep.org/donate. Gifts may be designated to “Grief & Loss/Amanda the Panda.”
