The Washington Wizards and CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield are proud to announce that CareFirst is sponsoring the "Community Threes" initiative for the fourth consecutive season. For every three-point shot made by a Wizards’ player this season, CareFirst is donating $100 to the DC Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy. The mission of the DC Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy is to improve the lives and well being of adolescents in Washington, DC.

This season the Washington Wizards made 575 three-pointers raising 57,500.

“Irene and Abe Pollin have established the Washington Wizards as a model franchise in the NBA,” said Gregory A. Devou, CareFirst Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer. “We are happy to team with the Wizards on this valuable community program that has become a fixture of CareFirst’s community efforts in the DC area.”

“We are proud of our partnership with CareFirst because of their commitment to our community and to our team,” said Wizards Senior Vice President of Community Relations Judy Holland-Burton. “This is the fourth season for the Community 3s program and we are in the midst of another great year.”
