Employees of CareSource, a nationally recognized nonprofit managed care entity, raised more than $56,000 for Firefly Children & Family Alliance to support an emergency aid fund for individuals and families.

Employees also participated in a volunteer day of service at the Gene Glick Family Support Center in Indianapolis.

“More than 250 CareSource employees donated a portion of their paycheck to Firefly in 2025,” said Dr. Cameual Wright, president of CareSource Indiana. “Firefly shares the whole-person, community-based approach that CareSource employees work to advance every day. I am also incredibly proud to see our team volunteer their time today for such a worthy cause.”

Firefly is a nonprofit that supports Indiana families and adults. In 2024, it served more than 50,000 families in counties across the state.
