About the Community Spirit 9/11 Mini-Grants Program:
To commemorate those Harvard Pilgrim members who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, Harvard Pilgrim and its Foundation created the Community Spirit 9/11 Mini-Grant program. This program enables employees from Harvard Pilgrim, Health Plans Inc. (our affiliate), and NTT Data (our IT partner) to award an annual grant, completely funded by the Foundation, to the local charity of his or her choice. Since the program began in 2002, these employees have directed more than $7 million to hundreds of organizations throughout our health plan service area – comprised of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire.
