On September 20, 2019 during our ninth annual Service Day: One Community. One Blue., nearly 3,000 Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts associates volunteered to support 52 service projects across the Commonwealth. Together with our nonprofit partners we provided critical support to address community needs focused on healthy living.
2019 Service Day Partners
Selecting Community Partners: Our Service Day projects are inspired and shaped by the needs of our community partners. Non-profit organizations submit a request for proposal (RFP) describing the work they would like completed. A group of Blue Cross associates, who are members of the BlueCrew Leadership Council, select which organizations we will partner with based on three primary categories: how closely their mission aligns with our healthy living focus, how well the project will accommodate a group of 60-80 volunteers, and the level of positive impact the project will have on the communities they serve. In addition to volunteer support, each Service Day partner receives a $5,000 grant for materials to complete their project.
