IN OUR COMMUNITIES

Being here matters

Tennessee is our home, and we believe in being here and doing good for our neighbors.

Here's how we do it.

The BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee Foundation is building BlueCross Healthy Places to provide our neighbors with opportunities for healthy activity and to help strengthen the bonds of our communities. All spaces are free and open to the public.

TEAMBLUE VOLUNTEERS

Volunteering our time and talents

Our support for communities across Tennessee doesn’t end with grants – we donate our time, as well. From delivering meals to collecting items for those in need, our employees find ways to give back, and they’re committed to the causes that matter to them. Each year, they volunteer thousands of hours to help their neighbors.

DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

Creating opportunities for all

We want to set an example of inclusion that all our employees and members can be proud of. You can see that in our people, who reflect our state’s wonderfully diverse population. You also see it in our commitment to helping talented young people get the education they need. We award BlueCross Power of We Scholarships to students pursuing careers in health care each year.
