The WellPoint Foundation and its affiliated foundations have also provided grants to support relief efforts following devastating disasters around the world, including the earthquakes in China, the wildfires in California, the flooding in the Midwest and other disasters which affected our communities.

"Through the efforts of our foundations across the country we can help address local health concerns," said Caroline 'Caz' Matthews, president of the WellPoint Foundation. "But we go beyond simply providing dollars by giving of our time through our national Community Service Day, where associates volunteer in our communities to have an even greater impact. In the end, our focus allows us to have a measurable and sustainable impact on critical health care needs in the communities we serve."
