NEW YORK, March 16, 2026 /3BL/ – UNFCU Foundation awarded $795K to 21 grant partners that align with its mission to sustain pathways out of poverty for marginalized women and youth. This year’s grant partner selection by UNFCU Foundation, now in its 11th year of philanthropy, focused on impactful programs benefitting migrants and refugees globally.

“The intersection of sustainability, inclusion, and economic empowerment is at the center of our work,” said Yma Gordon, Executive Director, UNFCU Foundation. “Through this year’s grants we are proud to expand access to skills-based training, quality education, and critical healthcare for women and youth and in this way further our strategy to leave no one behind.”

“Having recently marked 10 impactful years of grant-making, we remain deeply committed to bridging social, economic, and digital divides,” said Pamela Agnone, Chairperson of the UNFCU Foundation. “Program participants’ resilience in overcoming difficult circumstances by seizing new opportunities like artisan collectives, agribusiness, and social entrepreneurships, inspires us to do even more. We look forward to following progress as women shape brighter futures for themselves and catalyze positive change for their families and their communities.”

UNFCU Foundation grant partners located in six countries represent non-profit, non-governmental, and UN organizations. The grant selection process identified their program alignment with UNFCU Foundation’s mission and their impact equipping women and youth to break the cycle of poverty. These purposeful alliances spotlight the power of collective action:

• “As a long-time partner, UNFCU Foundation’s support helps to ensure that The Floating Hospital is meeting the behavioral-health needs of women and girls in public schools, family homeless shelters, and the medically underserved community at large,” said Floating Hospital President Sean T. Granahan. “This enables our teams to provide a continuum of care for families across New York City and assistance in rebuilding lives.”
• “UNFCU Foundation’s support comes at exactly the time when we’re aiming to scale up our digital training programs for refugees,” said Fabien de Castilla, Konexio Africa Director. “It will enable us to sustain and grow the successful program we’ve just completed in Kenya, especially in Kakuma Refugee Camp.”
• “Because of the UNFCU Foundation’s critical support, we can provide integrated, no-cost medical, sexual and reproductive health, and behavioral and mental health services to even more girls and young women in marginalized communities,” said Dr. Sarah Wood, Division Chief of Adolescent Medicine and Director of the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center in New York City. “Many of our youth have experienced trauma and would otherwise be unable to access services.”
• “UNFCU Foundation’s commitment to refugee women’s success is reflected in the tangible progress we’ve made together,” said Preethi Nampoothiri, Executive Director of the International Rescue Committee in Silver Spring, Maryland. “We’ve been able to expand our reach and provide job readiness training, financial literacy workshops, and credit-building services to an increasing number of women. This partnership allows us to continue working toward creating a future where refugee women can thrive and contribute to their communities with confidence.”
• “Emma’s Torch is proud to be a grant recipient of the UNFCU Foundation,” said Kerry Brodie, its Founder and Executive Director. “Partnering together helps us provide effective training that is well-regarded by employers in the hospitality industry, creating high demand for Emma’s Torch graduates and increasing the skill level of the culinary workforce overall. By providing refugees with opportunities for stability and economic mobility, we are making a meaningful, lasting impact not only on our graduates, but on their families and communities as well.”

SANTA ROSA, Calif., February 12, 2026 /3BL/ – Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) announced SOS Enterprise, an advanced edition of its engineering data management platform. The solution builds on the SOS Core software and automates engineering data governance and traceability to prepare for AI adoption at scale.

As semiconductor and electronics development accelerates, engineers face growing design complexity and rapidly increasing data volumes – challenges that intensify for organizations operating at multiple sites. At this scale, engineering data siloed across fragmented tools and file systems causes teams to lose significant productivity to manual workflows. They spend substantial time searching for information, frequently work with incorrect data versions, and must dedicate additional effort to resolve integrity and correlation issues. This lack of traceability creates compliance burdens and limits AI adoption, as machine learning systems require well-organized data to function reliably at scale.

SOS Enterprise provides a single system of record that turns fragmented design information into governed, reusable knowledge across distributed organizations. The software establishes clear data lineage, enables automated compliance tracking, and standardizes engineering information management across multiple sites and regulatory environments. By treating design files and verification data as versioned, traceable assets, the platform prepares engineering teams to integrate AI tools into design and verification workflows.

Key benefits of SOS Enterprise include:

• Automated compliance at enterprise scale: Provides audit trails, role-based access control, and software bill of materials tracking without adding to engineering workloads. This addresses regulatory requirements for industries like aerospace and defense and automotive.
• Enhanced data security and access control: Protects sensitive IP with fine-grained permissions, geofencing, and compliance-driven restrictions across regions and teams.
• Eliminates manual work: Automates traceability and custom workflows throughout the design lifecycle, tracking data origins and relationships while preparing engineering information for AI integration.
• Improved IP reuse across sites: Enables teams at any location to discover and reuse validated IP through a single system of record.

Simon Rance, General Manager, Data and IP Management at Keysight, said: “Engineering organizations tell us they’re ready to adopt AI, but their data isn’t. When design files, verification results, and IP libraries are scattered across disconnected systems, AI tools can’t deliver trustworthy outcomes. We built SOS Enterprise to solve that foundational problem by automating the governance and traceability work that’s currently done manually, making their engineering data AI-ready so teams can focus on innovation rather than data management. Early customer deployments have demonstrated significant improvements in IP reuse, faster project orchestration, and reduced operational overhead.”

The KeyBank Foundation announced an investment of $240,000 in YWCA North Central Indiana’s Strengthening Communities Initiative, a comprehensive program designed to enhance the social and economic well-being of survivors of abuse and other economically disenfranchised community members — both those residing in YWCA emergency shelters and individuals served throughout the broader community.

The initiative provides education, workforce training, individualized support, and advocacy that help build resources, strengthen confidence, and assist individuals in transitioning from crisis to long-term self-sufficiency.

The program will evaluate participant progress through clearly defined short-term, intermediate, and long-term outcomes across four core areas: financial literacy, empowerment coaching, securing and keeping a job, and the “Bridges Out of Poverty” framework. Outcomes are evaluated using both participant self-reporting and objective data, including budget completion rates, verified credit reports, and employment documentation.

Across all measures, the program’s impact has been significant: 86% of clients report steady progress toward personal goals and the development of stronger, more reliable support networks. These results are reflected not only in data but in the lived experiences of participants — clients who have secured safe, stable housing; transitioned into full-time employment; reduced debt; and even begun saving toward homeownership. These personal stories demonstrate how the Strengthening Communities Initiative fosters lasting financial independence, increased stability, and long-term personal growth for individuals and families across the region.

“Survivors of domestic violence often face overwhelming economic barriers,” said Amy Hill, YWCA North Central Indiana CEO. “Disrupted employment, damaged credit, limited access to childcare, and financial dependence trap them in abusive relationships. We are so grateful for KeyBank Foundation’s generous investment, which gives survivors hope and support, helping them regain independence, rebuild their lives, and create lasting stability for themselves and their families.”

“The YWCA’s Strengthening Communities Initiative delivers the type of transformational support that creates lasting pathways to stability and economic mobility,” said Yvonne Harrington, KeyBank Corporate Responsibility Officer. “At KeyBank, we’re committed to investing in programs that aim to remove barriers, expand opportunity, and empower individuals to build brighter financial futures for themselves and their families. We are so proud to partner with the YWCA to help more individuals across Northern Indiana thrive.”

A testament to the impact of mobilizing the power of giving.

We have some extraordinary news to share.

In 2025, America’s Charities crossed a threshold that few organizations ever reach: we have now raised more than $1 billion in charitable contributions since our founding in 1980. That’s over one billion dollars directed to nonprofits and individuals in need: one workplace campaign, one employee gift, one act of generosity at a time.

This milestone isn’t ours alone. It belongs to every employer who built a giving program, every employee who signed up to donate, every nonprofit that trusted us to deliver funds, and every individual whose life was changed as a result. It belongs to you.

More Than a Number: Transforming Lives and Communities

A billion dollars is a figure that’s hard to fully grasp, but behind it are real stories. It represents decades of quietly, persistently channeling the goodwill of American workers into causes that matter.

• Empowering Nonprofits: These funds have provided vital support to thousands of nonprofit organizations working on the front lines of every imaginable issue, from education and healthcare to environmental conservation and veterans causes.
• Providing Direct Assistance: Through our disaster relief funds and employee assistance programs, we have provided a lifeline to countless individuals and families facing unexpected crises and hardships.
• Strengthening Communities: By fostering a culture of giving in workplaces across the country and around the world, we have helped to build stronger, more resilient, and more compassionate communities.

A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Partners and Donors

Since 1980, America’s Charities has been at the forefront of workplace giving, connecting employers, employees, and nonprofits in a shared mission to mobilize the power of giving to improve the world. We’ve grown from a small nonprofit federation into a trusted partner for more than 300 businesses across the country, including Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, and state and local government agencies. And through it all, we’ve remained committed to the highest standards of accountability, transparency, and ethics.

This milestone would not have been possible without the unwavering support of our incredible partners and donors.

• To our employer partners: Thank you for your leadership and for championing workplace giving and emergency assistance funds within your organizations. Your commitment to corporate social responsibility is truly inspiring.
• To our nonprofit partners: Thank you for the tireless work you do every day to make the world a better place. It is an honor to support your missions.
• To our individual donors: Thank you for your generosity and for choosing America’s Charities as your partner in giving. Every dollar you contribute makes a difference.

The Power of Workplace Giving

This billion-dollar milestone is a powerful reminder of what workplace giving can accomplish. When employers make it easy for employees to give through payroll deduction, matching gifts, volunteer programs, and employee assistance funds. The results compound over time in ways that no single donor or organization could achieve alone. Consistent, recurring giving through the workplace is one of the most sustainable and impactful models of philanthropy.

What Comes Next

We are deeply grateful for every partner, donor, and nonprofit member who has been part of this journey. And while we’re proud to pause and celebrate this moment, we know the need has never been greater. There are still communities struggling, nonprofits stretched thin, and employees facing unexpected hardship.

The next billion starts now.

If your organization isn’t yet harnessing the full potential of employee giving, we’d love to show you what’s possible. Schedule a conversation with our team and let’s build something meaningful together.

Thank you for helping us reach this incredible milestone and for everything still to come.

America’s Charities (charities.org) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has been mobilizing the power of giving to improve the world since 1980. We provide workplace giving, employee assistance funds, disaster relief, volunteerism, matching gifts, and other philanthropic solutions to employers and nonprofits across the United States.
