Making communities healthier, together
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona has been helping keep Arizona healthy since 1939.
We’ve invested millions in philanthropic funding. In 2018, we started a public health movement with Mobilize AZSM, tackling Arizona’s toughest health challenges. Now, we have a foundation.
Our views are broader, our commitments are stronger, and our aspirations are bolder. The Foundation for Community & Health Advancement continues our legacy of elevating health.
We believe there is no better investment to make than in the health of our state. The Blue Cross® Blue Shield® of Arizona Foundation for Community & Health Advancement is here to do just that.
The Foundation joins forces with changemakers, innovators, and problem solvers who are making communities healthier all across Arizona. Through grants that support programs and applied research, we amplify impact and, together, tackle our state’s toughest health challenges.
Impacting health in four key areas
Substance Use Disorder
Misuse and overdose affect every community
Mental health
Anxiety, depression, and suicide are on the rise
Chronic Health Conditions
Diabetes alone affects 1 in 9 Arizonans
Health Equity
Social determinants of health affect health equity
The Foundation builds on the Blue Cross® Blue Shield® of Arizona (BCBSAZ) tradition of community investment and collaboration. In big and bold ways, we work to create positive change like the change BCBSAZ made between 2018 and July 2021.
