As we close out 2025, I find myself reflecting on a year defined by resilience, collaboration, and hope.
At the Humana Foundation, our mission has always been to meet people where need intersects with opportunity, and this year, that commitment has never felt more urgent or inspiring.
Together with our partners, we responded to crises and created pathways for longterm change. From providing disaster relief in Central Texas to investing $500,000 in food banks across four states, we stood shoulder to shoulder with communities facing hardship.
We opened the Health and Well-being Center at Junior Achievement of Kentuckiana, giving thousands of students tools to care for their mental health.
We launched new research reports on belonging and food insecurity, deepening our understanding of systemic challenges and how to overcome them. And through initiatives like Face the Fight and partnerships with organizations such as the Elizabeth Dole Foundation, we continued to champion veterans and military families ensuring that every life is valued and supported.
This year also brought moments of celebration. More than 12,000 Humana employees volunteered during Community Day across the U.S. The Humana Foundation honored 80 new scholarship recipients who represent the future we’re building together. Internally, our team embraced learning and growth, because we know that how we work matters as much as what we do.
Personally, I want to share how much my team inspires me—the way they show up for each other and for communities, the way they tackle hard challenges without flinching all while remaining curious and innovative. While working together, our work is joyful and meaningful.
As I look to 2026, I do so with optimism and resolve.
There is more work ahead, but together, we can continue to make a profound difference. From all of us at the Humana Foundation, we wish you a joyous holiday season and a new year filled with peace, purpose, and possibility. Continue to make time for friends, family, and yourself.
Together, we’ll do great things in 2026 and beyond.
