The Blue & You Foundation creates a state of better health for all Arkansans by investing in community-based organizations and grantee partners who are committed to improving the lives of the people they serve.
Mission
To achieve the goal of better health for all Arkansans, the Blue & You Foundation seeks to harness the power of partnership. By strategically focusing its grant funding on community-based solutions, the Foundation hopes to nurture community health leadership, foster collaboration and innovation, and leverage financial, human and community resources to produce a measurable, positive impact.
Vision
To achieve a healthier Arkansas, where our citizens have access to useful information and needed healthcare services that enable them to lead healthier lives.
Operating principles
Philanthropy
We believe in giving back to the community, in helping the underserved and the less fortunate, in exercising corporate social responsibility and encouraging it in others, and in the power of caring and collaboration to improve the quality of life for all Arkansans.
See our historical givingIntegrity
We believe in carrying out our mission with the highest degree of integrity, honesty, fairness, trustworthiness and respect for the value of all Arkansans, and we expect the same in our funded partners.
Accountability
We acknowledge our accountability to the “public trust” and believe in accepting responsibility for the prudent management and good stewardship of the financial resources and corporate reputation entrusted to us. We recognize the tremendous human value and benefit that can result from well-managed collaborations (or that can be wasted through poorly managed efforts), and we expect similar accountability from our funded partners.
