Programs and Partnerships
We have created, support, and sponsor community programs where you can learn new skills and engage in experiences that are good for your mind and body.
Charitable Giving
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont is committed to helping community organizations whose work is complementary to our mission to improve the health of all Vermonters. We support local nonprofit community organizations by providing financial contributions, in-kind services and volunteer support. This support is consistent with the Plan’s role as a socially responsible Vermont business and good corporate citizen.
Our charitable giving has enabled many local organizations to expand their activities. We encourage organizations to review our charitable giving guidelines and sponsorship application.
Below are some of the organizations Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont supported in 2022. We are pleased to provide support for these organizations and the good work they do to improve the health of Vermonters.
