LOUISVILLE, Ky.,  – The Humana Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Humana Inc. for the past 43 years, is proud to announce that Tiffany Benjamin, the foundation’s CEO, has been named to the inaugural TIME100 Philanthropy list, celebrating the singular figures shaping the future of giving.

“I am deeply honored to be recognized by TIME100 Philanthropy for the work of the Humana Foundation and our nonprofit partners in advancing health equity for underserved and marginalized communities,” said Tiffany Benjamin. “It’s an extraordinary privilege to be named alongside the many preeminent philanthropists whose contributions are forging important and positive change in the lives of people in the U.S. and across the globe.”

Benjamin has been the CEO of the Humana Foundation since 2022, where she has established innovative approaches to co-create healthy communities and eliminate unjust differences in health and healthcare in the U.S. She spearheaded the Foundation’s partnership with USAA to co-found Face the Fight, an initiative to reduce veteran suicides that is now supported by a coalition of over 200 organizations.

In December 2024, she was awarded the prestigious Outstanding Corporate Philanthropy Leadership Award from the Council on Foundations, and in 2022, she was named as one of the 100 Most Influential Black Americans by The Root. 

Benjamin is recognized alongside notable philanthropists, including Oprah Winfrey, MacKenzie Scott, Melinda French Gates, and Warren Buffett.
