Service Day 2021
Service Day: One Community. One Blue is a chance for thousands of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts associates to come together on a single day to support not-for-profits across the state. This year, on Thursday, September 23, 3,000 volunteers will participate in more than 90 in-person, virtual, and skill-based volunteer events. See our list of partners below.
Service Week 2020
In 2020, we reinvented our 10th annual company-wide service event to respond to the twin crises of COVID-19 and the country’s reckoning on race, with an emphasis on employee education and engagement. We expanded our traditional day of service into a week-long series of opportunities for associates to not only serve our communities, but also to learn more about systemic barriers to health equity and the solutions that can move us forward. From September 21-25, 2020, nearly 2,800 Blue Cross employees volunteered in 65 virtual and in-person service projects and participated in educational sessions featuring nonprofit, healthcare, and civic leaders focused on promoting health equity.
