The UnitedHealthcare Children’s Foundation (UHCCF) is a nonprofit organization based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, focused on improving the health and quality of life for children ages 16 and under who are covered by commercial health insurance plans in the United States. Since its founding in 2005, UHCCF has awarded thousands of medical grants to families nationwide, with total grant funding reaching tens of millions of dollars, supported by contributions from individuals, corporations, and UnitedHealth Group employees. Eligible families can receive assistance for medical services that are not fully covered by their insurance, up to a per-child annual limit and a lifetime maximum, regardless of whether the child is insured through UnitedHealthcare. The foundation operates within the private philanthropy sector, aiming to facilitate access to health-related services that can meaningfully impact a child’s clinical condition or daily life, and it has outlined an objective to award its 50,000th grant by 2030.
