About the Foundation

Building a Healthier Idaho

The Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation for Health is a nonprofit private foundation established by Blue Cross of Idaho in 2001 that is dedicated to giving back to Idaho. Our focus is statewide. We have funded projects in all 44 Idaho counties. We are dedicated to transformational — not simply transactional — approaches that will impact Idaho today and for generations to come.

Mission

We’re dedicated to giving back to Idaho by addressing the root causes that impact health.

Values

  • Build partnerships
  • Continuous learning
  • Transformational change
  • Opportunities for all

How We Work

We build local partnerships and collaborate to create sustainable changes that promote health in Idaho. We do this in multiple ways:

  • We fund programs and projects driven by local communities that address root causes to health issues.
  • We lead the way with our own initiatives and programs to build a healthier Idaho.
  • We support demonstration projects and evaluations of current efforts that improve the health of our state.
