About Us
"It is a unique approach that brings together educators, local and national nonprofits, and communities to create limitless possibilities for all."
So says the Toyota USA Foundation in announcing $9.3 million in grants to two Arizona school districts to help students prepare for science, technology, engineering, and math careers, the Arizona Republic reports.
The Driving Possibilities initiative is a five-year, phased rollout of programming in select schools.
The grants will be awarded to Chandler Unified School District and Tempe Elementary School District.
"Our goal is to increase awareness of future STEM careers while helping build sustainable programs in the communities where our Toyota team members live and work," Tellis Bethel, group vice president of social innovation at Toyota, says in a press release.
The Driving Possibilities initiative is the largest and most comprehensive in Toyota's history, and it's funded by the Toyota USA Foundation, Toyota Motor North America, and Toyota Financial Services.
