Foursurance Agency Earns Make More Happen™ Award for Supporting Families of Seriously Ill Children

Liberty Mutual Insurance has awarded Foursurance Agency a 2026 Make More Happen™ Award for its dedication to helping local families persevere through the unimaginable challenges of childhood illness through its partnership with Capital Cup for Kids, Inc. The award includes a $5,000 donation, which can be doubled to $10,000 through online community support.

Foursurance Agency’s story is featured on the official Make More Happen microsite, https://www.agentgiving.com/foursurance-agency, where supporters can vote to help unlock the full $10,000 donation. If the story receives at least 750 combined votes and comments, the $5,000 award will be doubled. The additional funding would help Capital Cup for Kids to continue to provide free meals at the Ronald McDonald House NICU Family Room, supply equipment for the Adaptive Winter Sports Program at Double H Ranch, and to help Make-A-Wish fulfill their mission to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.

Capital Cup for Kids brings athletes and neighbors together to support local families facing the unimaginable challenge of a child’s serious illness. Through adult hockey, golf, and pickleball tournaments, the nonprofit raises hundreds of thousands of dollars each year for organizations like Ronald McDonald House, Make-A-Wish, and Building on Love, while also providing direct assistance to families in crisis throughout the Capital Region.

Foursurance has proudly supported the organization since 2019, sponsoring a hockey team and helping raise money each year, including a team-record of over $13,000 to-date in 2026. Beyond fundraising, the agency adopts a local family as its honorary team captain, providing gifts for the child and essential items and financial assistance for parents overwhelmed by treatment costs, travel, hotel stays, meals, and other everyday expenses not covered by insurance. The team also encourages teammates, friends, family, and community members to contribute, multiplying the impact for families in need.

“Just to see these resilient kids smile so brightly despite knowing the challenges they face and seeing the appreciation on their parents’ faces really warms our hearts,” said Don Ferlazzo, owner of Foursurance Agency. “We’re honored to support Capital Cup for Kids and help provide comfort, hope, and relief to families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.”

For the Foursurance team, the partnership represents an opportunity to unite the community around families facing extraordinary circumstances and remind them they are not alone.

“Recognizing independent agents’ dedication to their communities and nonprofit partners is what the Make More Happen Awards are all about,” said Matthew Brisk, Senior Territory Manager, Liberty Mutual Insurance. “Foursurance Agency’s commitment to Capital Cup for Kids demonstrates the incredible impact local businesses can make in supporting families through medical hardship and creating hope during difficult times.”

Throughout 2026, Liberty Mutual Insurance will select up to 36 independent agencies nationwide for a Make More Happen Award, donating up to $360,000 to nonprofits they support. Agencies become eligible for the award by submitting applications that highlight their commitment to a specific cause.
