Donation will help the American Red Cross provide disaster relief services

The Humana Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM), announced today it will provide initial support through a $1 million grant to the American Red Cross to help the nonprofit organization deliver vital services, including health services, to those affected by Hurricane Irma.

In addition, Humana Inc. announced that the company will match storm relief donations by its employees.

“We stand with the millions of Americans who are dealing with the devastation brought by this powerful storm,” said Humana President and CEO Bruce Broussard. “We are committed to providing support and assistance for disaster relief and recovery efforts to affected communities that more than one million Humana members, more than 10,000 employees, and countless health care provider partners call home.”

Hurricane Irma, one of the most powerful storms ever recorded in the Atlantic Ocean, has caused widespread damage across parts of Florida and is projected to spread to other states as its makes its way north. The American Red Cross is one of the organizations that is mobilizing and preparing to mount a massive relief effort in Florida and other affected communities.

“We at the Humana Foundation recognize the many different relief agencies and thousands of volunteers that will give their time, talents and resources to help these communities recover from Hurricane Irma,” said interim Humana Foundation Executive Director Pattie Dale Tye. “Our thoughts are with those affected, and we hope our donation can be a catalyst that will speed recovery efforts and help meet the immediate and ongoing needs in the wake of this natural disaster.”
