Taking care of our communities.
At the heart of our work.
At Québec Blue Cross®, we are committed to support our communities to build a world where everyone has equal opportunities. It’s why we proudly support local organizations that share our need to promote the wellness and development of youth, families and society’s most vulnerable.
Our community involvement

Make travel dreams come true
Bringing the travel experience to life for children with serious illnesses and bringing them moments of joy.
Promote health and wellness
Caring for Canadians by providing them with the support and guidance they need at every stage of their life.
Causes that matter to us
Fondation Olo gives families an equal chance of bringing a healthy baby into the world and of introducing them to healthy eating habits early on.
Our support for the Fondation Olo is directly linked to our wish to contribute to the health of youth and families, which is why we are proud to support the initiatives of this organization since 2003.
The CHU Sainte-Justine's mission is to improve health on the whole which constitutes a complete state of physical, mental, spiritual and social well-being of children, teenagers and mothers of Quebec in affiliation with our health care, university and research partners.
Since 2014, we have been pleased to offer free travel insurance without exclusions related to pre-existing conditions to young patients at CHU Sainte-Justine under care in hematology and oncology. In 2018, young neurology patients were also added to this group.
The mission of the Dr. Clown Foundation is to bring joy to the most vulnerable people of our society thanks to a personalized and relational approach with hospitalized children, students in specialized school environments, patients of all ages in general hospitals and elderly people in healthcare facilities.
For several years, we have been happy to offer financial assistance to the Dr. Clown Foundation by supporting their mental health initiatives associated with therapeutic clowns in child psychiatry and by ensuring the continuity of their programs.
Make-A-Wish® Canada works with communities across the country to provide children with critical illnesses the opportunity to have their biggest dream granted.
Since 1989, we have been proud to support children and their families on their wish trips by offering them free travel insurance without exclusions related to pre-existing conditions.
The mission of NOVA Home care is to provide high-quality, personalized and compassionate home care, free of charge or at low cost, to ill or dying people.
We are proud to be associated with this organization for the creation of the Québec Blue Cross Home Palliative Care Mentorship Program. This exclusive program in Quebec allows nurses and health professionals to receive free training to better support people in their final stages of life at home.
UpstartED is a nonprofit in education whose mission is to empower youth aged 12 to 18 years old so they can unlock their potential and channel it towards making an impact as social innovators who can build a better and more inclusive world, for all. UpstartED also supports teachers through training and plug and play teaching material.
We are proud to support their programs since 2020 by offering these young social innovators opportunities to reflect as a team on solutions to community issues.
