We’re here to help you impact the lives of others
Allegra is proud to serve the greater southwestern suburbs of the Chicago area, and we recognize that our business can only remain as strong as the community we serve. So we are committed to educating our customers about print and graphic communications techniques that will make the most of your messages, and your resources.
Nonprofit Organizations: We are especially dedicated to helping charities, schools, healthcare institutions, trade and business associations, and other nonprofit organizations whether to attract volunteers, generate funding, or make other contributions. Faced with increasing competition, they must strengthen their visibility and name recognition to effectively serve our community, and we are happy to support their efforts in kind.
Community support is a core value at Allegra. The FootPRINT Fund is designed to aid non-profit organizations in their quest to create lasting impressions.
We hope the FootPRINT Fund of $6,000 we have established will help our local organizations and associations leave their “footprints” in our community through increased awareness and visibility. We challenge each of you to use these print services awards to build a better community, one step at a time.
The FootPRINT Fund ® awards print services, through Allegra Print & Imaging in Romeoville & Bolingbrook , to select nonprofit organizations to help enhance their image, expand their services and extend their printing budgets.
