Benchmarking Our Grantmaking
The BCBSNC Foundation engaged the Center for Effective Philanthropy to help us benchmark our performance in the eyes of grantees and applicants. We've posted a summary of our results and are pleased to share the findings and feedback with you.
10th Anniversary Grantees
The BCBSNC Foundation is celebrating 10 years of grantmaking. We are only as successful as our grantees, so it was only fitting to reinvest in some of our best partnerships that are making a real difference for the people served in their communities.
