Investing in Saskatchewan communities

Envisioning a future where there is equitable access to health and wellness information for everyone, and each person in Saskatchewan understands how to navigate their healthcare effectively.

Building community

Saskatchewan Blue Cross is a not-for-profit organization that puts communities first. Being an active member in the communities we serve is an essential part of who we are. In fact, building community is one of our core values. We’re proud to be a leader in community engagement, investing meaningfully in Saskatchewan communities through our time, finances, resources, energy, and spirit to help advance the places we call home.

Our approach

Saskatchewan Blue Cross is driven by a mission to empower communities on their journey to whole health and wellness and is inspired by a vision of lifelong health and wellbeing for every person in Saskatchewan.

We invest meaningfully in increasing health literacy, building overall community health and well-being and encouraging social change, enabling us to help the people of Saskatchewan achieve a future of lifelong health and wellbeing.

Saskatchewan Blue Cross currently provides community support through two main programs:

Community Investment Program

Organizations whose mandates relate to keeping Saskatchewan healthy just makes sense to us. That’s why Saskatchewan Blue Cross invests in charitable organizations that empower individuals and communities on their journey to whole health.

The Saskatchewan Blue Cross Community Investment strategy focuses on creating partnerships with organizations province-wide to encourage the health and wellbeing of Saskatchewan people, and places priority on initiatives advancing health literacy.

This program has three main areas of focus:

  1. Health Literacy
  2. Community Health and Wellbeing
  3. Diversity & Inclusion
