“At Kaiser Permanente, investing in the communities we serve is core to our mission and part of our work to help more people live healthy and thrive,” said Cynthia Cifuentes, Vice President of Brand, Communications, and Community Engagement for Kaiser Permanente of the Mid-Atlantic States. “The Toys for Tots event extends our commitment to residents of Southern Maryland and provides families in need with support during the holidays. We are honored to partner with the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs on this community event.”
Kaiser Permanente plans to open a new, state-of-the-art medical center in nearby Waldorf, MD in 2025. As a non-profit healthcare provider, Kaiser Permanente works to improve the conditions for health and equity in the communities it serves. The health system invests in communities to address social health factors such as safe and affordable housing, financial stability, transportation, access to healthy food, health care access, education and more.
“The Blue Crabs are very excited to continue to grow our partnership with Toys for Tots again this year and feel very fortunate to join forces with a huge community player like Kaiser Permanente to bring the community such a worthwhile event,” said Blue Crabs General Manager Courtney Knichel.
