CIGNA Giving

CIGNA makes gifts to four different types of organizations. In the area of Health & Wellness (the primary focus of CIGNA's giving) we go where the real experts are: the people who know a health care challenge because they've experienced it first hand. Alex's Lemonade Stand Fund and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation are the types of organizations we seek out to support.

Our approach to Education & Career Development and Culture & the Arts is the same. For example, our grant is helping the MacPhail Center for the Arts continue a unique music therapy program that is making an enormous difference in the lives of children with disabilities. Our contribution to City Year to help a group of young men and women overcome the challenges of their neighborhoods exemplifies our "go to those who know" approach to funding in the area of Community & Civic Affairs.

The CIGNA Foundation also provides a limited number of Targeted Grants for creative initiatives in the area of Health & Wellness. Organizations seeking funding from CIGNA should read about the Targeted Grant Process of the CIGNA Foundation. The CIGNA Foundation considers proposals from organizations working in core concern areas.
