Local Marketing and Print Provider Spearheads Community Giveback Efforts and Receives a Notable Award Recognition for Business Growth

URBANDALE, Iowa – Allegra Marketing Print Mail, a leading provider of print, marketing and mail solutions in Urbandale, has awarded print, marketing and mail services to the Urbandale Community Action Network through its 2026 FootPRINT Fund® program.

The FootPRINT Fund® is an annual initiative led by Allegra that helps nonprofit organizations leave a lasting impact in their communities through donated print and marketing services. Over the past decade, the FootPRINT Fund® program at Allegra Des Moines has awarded more than $125,000 in services to nonprofit organizations throughout the region, supporting projects ranging from brochures, newsletters and direct mail campaigns to posters, invitations, graphic design and other marketing materials.

“Our mission at Allegra is to deliver customized and effective marketing, signage and print solutions that move the needle for Des Moines-area businesses and nonprofits,” said Kevin McGuire, owner of Allegra Des Moines. “The FootPRINT Fund® is one way we fulfill that mission, helping local organizations share their message and expand their reach without stretching their budgets. It has been an honor to support nonprofits in our community over the past decade, and we look forward to continuing to serve as a trusted partner for years to come.”

In addition to its community giveback efforts, Allegra Des Moines recently hosted a promotional products showcase, welcoming local businesses and community members to explore hundreds of branded merchandise and marketing items from several leading vendors. The event highlighted a wide range of customizable products designed to help businesses increase visibility and strengthen customer engagement.

Guests had the opportunity to connect with vendors, network with other local professionals and participate in interactive giveaways throughout the event, including a spin-to-win prize wheel and promotional prize drawings.

“Events like these have always been a great way to connect with local businesses and showcase the wide range of services we offer,” said Josephine McTaggart, impact strategist at Allegra Des Moines. “It was fantastic to see so many people attend and to have the opportunity to meet with both longtime customers and new faces in the community. We’re grateful for the continued support from businesses throughout the Des Moines area.”

The Center’s commitment to delivering quality print, mail and marketing services that make a positive impact for local businesses was also demonstrated with a recent award recognition. Earlier this quarter, McGuire and the Allegra Des Moines team were recognized by Alliance Franchise Brands, the franchisor of several leading visual communications brands, with a Systemwide Sales Growth Award. The award recognizes the top 10 Franchise Members in the Alliance Franchise Brands network with the highest year-over-year dollar growth for a single Center.
