The Community Wellbeing Grant Program | Alberta Blue Cross

Spread the love

The Community Wellbeing grant program is strengthening our communities with 30 awards of $1,000 each to non-profit organizations that promote health and wellbeing. We are rewarding organizations that make a difference in their communities.

Alberta Blue Cross is a not-for-profit organization that provides health and wellness benefits and services to individuals, families, and businesses in Alberta. They offer a wide range of insurance products, including health, dental, vision, life, and travel insurance, as well as prescription drug coverage. Alberta Blue Cross works with employers, government agencies, and private customers to deliver tailored benefits plans that promote overall health and wellness.

In addition to offering insurance, Alberta Blue Cross also focuses on health promotion and community engagement, supporting wellness initiatives and programs that benefit Albertans. Their goal is to improve access to healthcare services, support preventative care, and ensure that Albertans have the necessary resources to maintain and improve their health and well-being.
