<\/a><\/a>\nSince 2022, Humana and the Humana Foundation have contributed a combined $5.9 million in matching donations during Double Match Day.<\/p>
\n\u201cOur employees consistently show up for the communities they call home, and Double Match Day is a powerful example of that commitment,\u201d said Jim Rechtin, president and CEO of Humana. \u201cThe generosity of Humana and CenterWell teammates reflects our shared purpose and their commitment to making a real difference in people\u2019s lives.\u201d<\/p>
\nDouble Match Day is the signature initiative for the Humana Foundation\u2019s yearlong matching donations program. Throughout the year, employees can maximize charitable gifts to their communities through a one-to-one match by the Humana Foundation. However, on Double Match Day, the Humana Foundation doubles the impact during a 24-hour span to offer two-to-one matching of employee donations. The result is one of the most impactful days of giving to our employees.<\/p>
\n\u201cDouble Match Day is a reminder of what\u2019s possible when our teammates rally around the causes they care about,\u201d said Humana Foundation CEO, Tiffany Benjamin. \u201cThe event reflects the heart of our culture and highlights how we show up for each other and the communities we serve.\u201d<\/p>
\nThroughout Double Match Day, employees shared personal stories about the nonprofits they supported using the hashtag #GotMyMatch. From health and housing to education and food security, employees supported causes close to their hearts.<\/p>
\n\u201cI #GotMyMatch to Feeding America for my mom who was a tireless food bank volunteer,\u201d wrote April Williams, an associate director for enterprise data governance with Humana. \u201cWhen my mom finished at the food bank, she also visited neighborhoods in Washington, DC, and gave out as much of the remaining food as she could spare.\u201d<\/p>
\nThe Humana Foundation also awarded $45,000 via three separate grants to employees who participated in Double Match Day. The grant recipients \u2013 one $25,000 winner and two $10,000 winners \u2013 then selected their favorite nonprofit to receive the funds.<\/p>
