BLOOMFIELD, Conn., Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Cigna Group (NYSE: CI) put out a challenge to its workforce this summer, inviting colleagues to join its first-ever Community Vitality Project, a nine-day challenge combining fun, fitness and fundraising. By logging more than 280,000 minutes of fitness activities and awarding their minutes spent moving, The Cigna Group employees helped determine how to allocate a collective $25,000 donation among three nonprofits: National Council for Mental Wellbeing, National Coalition for Homeless Veterans and The American Academy of Family Physicians Foundation. The Community Vitality Project kicked off earlier this summer with more than $50,000 in donations from The Cigna Group and the David and Sherry Cordani Family Foundation to three Boys & Girls Clubs in Connecticut to purchase new bicycles and helmets for the state's youth.
The project culminated with a reception for Boys & Girls Clubs youth, along with Cigna leaders, to watch the Hartford Yard Goats baseball team play a home game at Dunkin' Park. Families were also able to spend time with surprise guests: UConn men's basketball coach Dan Hurley, and UConn basketball players Alex Karaban, KK Arnold and Sarah Strong.
"We are excited to capstone The Cigna Group's Community Vitality Project with a bike ride from our headquarters in Bloomfield to Dunkin Park, home of the Yard Goats. We are thrilled to be joined by UConn's Dan Hurley, Alex Karaban, KK Arnold and Sarah Strong," said Melissa Skottegaard, senior vice president of community programs and communications, The Cigna Group. "Connecticut is our home state and we are committed to building a better future for every individual and every community here, and in our communities around the world. Our Community Vitality Project empowers our employees to help make a difference in our communities through physical activities and have some fun doing so along the way. We are proud that by logging their minutes, our employees helped support these three impactful organizations, who are each doing their part to improve mental health among youth and veterans, as well as reducing barriers to health equity."
"We are so grateful for the support from The Cigna Group, which offers our young people pathways to stay active and equips them with the skills and resources they need to care for their physical and mental health," said Tomeka Cole, vice president of development and communications at Boys & Girls Clubs of Hartford. "Whether it's a way to get to work, school or a friend's home, the bicycles and helmets donated to our club will help our youth with empowerment, social connection and physical fitness. It's also cool that many of our kids capped off the summer by meeting these outstanding UConn basketball players. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience they will always cherish!"
The nonprofits receiving Community Vitality Project donations were selected based on their mission alignment to our philanthropic and community engagement initiative, which includes a commitment from The Cigna Group Foundation to allocate more than $27 million in grants over the next three years to nonprofit organizations focused on improving youth mental health, improving veteran mental health, and reducing barriers to health equity.
