Good Deed Of The Day: Humana Offers $100,000 Grant to Nashville Charities (HUM)

Humana Inc. HUM is now accepting applications for its 2011 Humana Communities Benefit grant through its web site – Humana.com/HCB. This is the second consecutive year the health and benefits company will award at least $100,000 to Nashville nonprofits working to improve the well-being of the city and its surrounding neighborhoods. Last year's winner – Oasis Center – enhanced its Bike Workshop and Fitness program for low-income youth. The Workshop trains young people to rebuild and maintain bicycles and promotes bicycling use and safety. With the funds from Humana, Oasis Center renovated the Workshop space and launched a mobile Bike Workshop to take into the most at-risk areas of Nashville.
