The Blue Foundation was created in January 2020 by employees at Blue with the simple purpose of making a positive and meaningful impact in our local communities.
Today, the Blue Foundation gives our employees a platform to unite and act within their communities, allowing us to truly live our values of being responsive and caring advocates.

These varying programs allow the Blue Foundation to be intentional in the grants they are providing; some meeting and solving short-term problems while others are supporting larger, more long-term causes.
