Blue Cross Blue Shield Employees Volunteer Across Massachusetts in Annual Service Day
More than 2,800 employees from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts volunteered at 56 nonprofit organizations across the state as part of its 16th annual Service Day. The event is a key component of the company's corporate social responsibility program and has seen over 230,000 volunteer hours contributed since it began in 2011. This year’s efforts included both on-site volunteering at Blue Cross offices and virtual participation by employees. Projects ranged from packing hygiene kits for individuals returning from incarceration to constructing beds for children in need and harvesting produce for hunger relief organizations across the South Coast region. The initiative reflects the company's ongoing commitment to supporting healthy, equitable communities. Sarah Iselin, president and CEO of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, emphasized that Service Day is part of a broader culture of community engagement among employees, which continues beyond this annual event through lasting partnerships with local nonprofits.
