UNITED HEALTHCARE REP: We wanna make sure that we’re providing resources and tools to the community, to make sure that they’re staying safe from COVID.

At a table, she and another man hand out small UnitedHealthcare boxes to the children beside the court.

Four girls stand in a line and hold basketballs. They wave.

GIRLS: Thank you United Healthcare!

The kids play basketball on the court. A man in a yellow shirt talks to two older boys on the sidelines.

WOMAN IN PLAID SHIRT: Being able to see young people come out, play together, get mentorship from respected adults in the community, and also get access to resources that could improve their health and wellbeing. All of those things are critical to who we are as a company, as well as the people that we serve.

All the children smile and pose together with the UnitedHealthcare worker on the basketball court.
