Superior HealthPlan Invests $700,000 to Offer Community Hygiene Closets in Texas
Superior HealthPlan, a subsidiary of Centene (NYSE: CNC), has invested $700,000 to support community hygiene closets across Texas since 2020. The initiative provides free personal care products like diapers, deodorant, shampoo, and laundry detergent to families in need.
The program, which began during the COVID-19 pandemic, now supports 20 community-based organizations managing nearly 30 hygiene closets in various Texas cities. These closets help fill a critical gap as personal care items are not covered under SNAP benefits, which serve approximately 3.5 million low-income Texans.

Il programma, avviato durante la pandemia di COVID-19, supporta ora 20 organizzazioni comunitarie che gestiscono quasi 30 armadietti igienici in diverse città texane.

Superior HealthPlan은 Centene (NYSE: CNC)의 자회사로, 2020년 이후 텍사스 전역의 지역 위생 보관소를 지원하기 위해 70만 달러를 투자했습니다. 이 사업은 기저귀, 데오도란트, 샴푸, 세탁 세제와 같은 개인 위생용품을 필요로 하는 가정에 무료로 제공합니다.
