DMEHA Part of Wellmark BluesCare Giving Program
We’re proud to announce that Des Moines European Heritage Association has been accepted into Wellmark’s BluesCare Giving Program.
The employees of Wellmark Blue Cross and Blue Shield participate in determining where charitable contributions are distributed in Iowa and South Dakota through this signature initiative of The Wellmark Foundation.
Wellmark employees volunteer more than 36,000 hours on their own time each year with qualifying organizations in Iowa and South Dakota. The Foundation matches these hours with monetary contributions to the employees’ designated charitable or educational organizations. For every four hours an employee volunteers, the employee can designate funding to the qualifying nonprofit of his or her choice.
If you’re a Wellmark employee, we’d love to have you volunteer at Christkindlmarket Des Moines or at any of the community programs provided by Des Moines European Heritage Association.
Does your organization offer a similar program? We’d love to be a part of it!
