AmeriHealth New Jersey celebrates 25th anniversary with associate volunteer project in support of Happy Hope Foundation

Cranbury, NJ, April 24, 2019 — Today AmeriHealth New Jersey celebrates 25 years of service to the state of New Jersey. In honor of this significant milestone associates stepped away from their desks to participate in a volunteer project in support of Happy Hope Foundation, whose mission is to bring hope and happiness to hospitalized children with special needs or chronic and life-threatening illnesses.

Associates gathered to make cards and assemble Happy Hope Bags, filled with activities encouraging play and creativity, that will be distributed to children at six hospitals across the state.

“Giving back to our local communities is a large part of who we are as an organization and has been since we first opened our doors 25 years ago,” said Mike Munoz, market president for AmeriHealth New Jersey. “We are proud to support the great work Happy Hope Foundation does to bring smiles to children and families who are facing difficult circumstances across our state.”
