Mission
Centene’s mission is transforming the health of the communities we serve, one person at a time. The Centene Foundation is an essential part of how we pursue this mission. We achieve measurable impact for the communities we serve through partnerships and philanthropy efforts that invest in initiatives with holistic approaches to dismantling barriers to health.
Areas of Focus
Reflecting Centene’s commitment to the needs of those who rely on government-sponsored health care and to addressing social determinants of health and health equity, preference will be given to initiatives in three distinct areas of focus.
Healthcare Access
Social Services
Education
Local Approach, National Reach
Because of Centene’s local approach, we are uniquely positioned to help solve the issues our members face. Our plans’ employees live and work in the communities we serve. We can meet our partners where they are because we’re there, too.

How We Give
The Centene Foundation and our local health plans concentrate on partnerships with local organizations committed to addressing the needs of our communities and focused on long-term impacts with lasting results.
We forge durable connections by providing partners the assets they need, such as financial commitments, skills-based assistance from our Employee Ambassadors, volunteerism, guidance and other valuable resources, strategically aligned to support their goals.
