Community Investment
Through Care Crew, our associates gain pride in our company, a sense of accomplishment in the community, and the motivation to continue making a difference.
When we say that Care Is the Heart of Our Work®, it’s not only our slogan — it’s a call to action. That’s why we constantly work to help the communities we serve through volunteering, fundraising, community health education and outreach programs, and charitable giving.
These efforts aren’t just isolated initiatives; they’re the mission of every AmeriHealth Caritas employee. Through Care Crew, our internal volunteer program, we offer year-round opportunities for our associates to donate their time and energy to a variety of causes, as well as up to 16 hours of paid volunteer time to help them do so.
Since Care Crew’s founding in 2017, we’ve logged
250,000
total associate volunteer hours
We’ve also worked with over
2,000
community partners in volunteerism
Since 2015, associates have pledged more than
$5.3 million
to nonprofit organizations through the annual Giving Together campaign
From national efforts like our Giving Together employee fundraising campaign, to more local outreach like our Beyond School Walls mentoring program for seventh- and eighth-grade students in Philadelphia, we put social responsibility first — every day.
Service is our passion
We’re always looking for new ways to collaborate with local and national leaders to help build healthy communities.

Learn more about how we address health and health care disparities through the AmeriHealth Caritas signature programs. 2022 marked 20 years of Healthy Hoops®, an AmeriHealth Caritas signature health program that uses basketball as a platform to provide a fun, active learning environment for children ages 3 to 18. Power of Partnerships events bring together community leaders and organizations to explore how to connect individuals in need to community resources, and the Health Empowerment Tour is a customized program that educates communities on topics such as diabetes, heart health, obesity, medication adherence, and mental health.
