Removing Barriers to Well-Being in the Community | Cigna
  • 9 years ago
Central to our mission, improving health is at the heart of everything we do at Cigna. That includes improving the health of our communities. Our charitable giving goals focus on contributions that reflect and magnify the positive impact of Cigna's mission, particularly in the global communities where it has a business or market presence and engaging employees in meaningful service activities.
