CCIL announced today that it has been recognized by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois for its success in expanding access to health care and improving the well being of the community, and has been awarded a $5,000 grant to continue its important efforts. This is the first time CCIL has been awarded funding for the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois Health grant.
“Many of Chicago’s impoverished and homeless have not had access or utilized health services. CCIL’s health resources provide needed, onsite healthcare to ensure the physical wellness of clients. We’re excited to receive this grant and look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois,” said Judy McIntyre, CCIL Executive Director.
CCIL is one of 185 organizations to receive a grant or donation this year from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois, which focuses its giving in three key areas: health services for the uninsured and underserved, human services and education. Additional information about Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois’ charitable giving program is available at www.bcbsil.com/about_us/involvement.htm.
