For nearly 30 years, the Cisco Foundation has turned ideas into opportunity – helping people and communities around the world thrive. 

This commitment has propelled us forward since 1997, when we first set out to support basic human needs across the California Bay Area. Since then, we’ve partnered with nonprofit and for-profit organizations around the globe – from established leaders to emerging innovators – to tackle complex problems through bold, technology-driven solutions.  

Our strategy has enabled us to positively impact one billion lives, deliver millions in catalytic funding, and reach organizations in nearly every region of the world. Today, we’re proud to report our latest impact and progress in our FY25 Cisco Foundation Impact Report.  

Discover our impact in the FY25 Cisco Foundation Impact Report.

The last year was marked by both immense change and opportunity as organizations adapted in the age of AI. We witnessed firsthand what happens when technology and human ingenuity come together through our partners, from organizations helping people rebuild their lives after incarceration to social enterprises expanding access to education, financing, vital services, and climate solutions.  

While we at the Cisco Foundation provide support, it’s our partners’ creativity, resilience, and commitment that bring transformation to life.  

 A few of the many highlights you’ll see in this year’s report include: 

• Positively impacted more than 154 million lives in every region of the world  
• Supported 103 organizations across more than 100 countries 
• Catalyzed more than US$42 million in additional funding for our nonprofit partners from the public and private sector, more than doubling our collective impact

Beyond these numbers, what inspires us most is our partners’ stories. This year, you’ll meet a few organizations who have led the way in impact and innovation, including:

Trek Medics, an organization making emergency care more accessible through its innovative, mobile-first platform, Beacon. Through the Cisco Foundation, Beacon facilitated more than 42,000 emergency responses worldwide and onboarded hundreds of new responders across 18 new response agencies.    

FINCA Ventures is working to eradicate global poverty by backing early-stage social enterprises. The Cisco Foundation provided funding to multiple FINCA Ventures investees across Ghana, Zambia, and Kenya, helping to accelerate their ability to scale and deepen impact in the region.  

Raspberry Pi Foundation is inspiring the next generation of technology creators by making computing education accessible and engaging for all. With support from the Cisco Foundation, Raspberry Pi has been able to expand their impact, from classrooms in rural India to refugee camps in Africa.

Digital Green is co-creating a world where farmers use technology and data to build prosperous communities. Cisco Foundation grants helped to develop and scale FarmerChat, an AI assistant that has supported more than 460,000 farmers since 2023. 

Our partners, like those highlighted above, are reimagining what’s possible in a time of tighter resources and surging community demands. They are using AI to lower costs and digitize resources to improve efficiency and, in turn, deliver deeper impact. They’re also forging new funding and partnerships that make solutions more sustainable, while collaborating with one another — and with us — to drive systemic change for the communities they serve. 

These actions are not only creating impact at the community level; they’re also strengthening the organizations themselves, helping them attract additional funding, scale their solutions, and make progress toward long-term financial viability. To better support them, we’ve deepened our technical advisory services, provided increased flexibility, and prioritized opportunities for connection.  

As we look ahead to fiscal 2026, we’re eager to see the next wave of impact from our AI and digital innovation investments. We’ll continue supporting both well-established organizations and “hidden gems,” or early-stage innovators who are redefining what’s possible.  

Our vision for the future is one of shared progress, with communities thriving in the digital age, social enterprises scaling proven models of change, and partners uniting across sectors to create impact.  

The road ahead is complex, but with collaboration, creativity, and Purpose, we will continue to build a world where technology connects and empowers everyone to thrive. Learn more in our FY25 Cisco Foundation Impact Report.

Southwire Company LLC, North America’s leading wire and cable manufacturer and an essential provider of power infrastructure, has announced a strategic investment in Orange Charger, the fastest-growing provider of reliable, right-sized EV charging and emerging energy management solutions built specifically for multifamily housing.

By combining Southwire’s extensive expertise in power distribution and installation solutions with Orange’s purpose-built charging platform, the companies will jointly develop streamlined installation packages and material bundles that reduce complexity and lower total deployment costs for multifamily owners.

The collaboration will accelerate deployments nationwide and make it easier for properties to adopt reliable, right-sized EV charging without unnecessary infrastructure upgrades.

“This partnership brings more than capital; it brings a true strategic ally,” said Neil Joseph, CEO of Orange Charger. “Southwire’s scale and expertise will help us streamline installations, reduce deployment costs through integrated material packages and accelerate joint product development that will continue to simplify charging for multifamily owners and EV drivers. With Southwire also joining as a board observer, we’re gaining a partner aligned and committed to our long-term strategy. We’re excited to continue expanding access to reliable and affordable EV charging across communities nationwide.”

“Southwire is committed to supporting innovative technologies that advance electrification and grid modernization,” said Corky Whipple, Southwire’s VP of Engineered Solutions. “Orange Charger’s focus on scalable, cost-effective EV charging for multifamily properties aligns with our mission to power a more sustainable future.”

Orange is solving one of the most persistent barriers in EV adoption: affordable, dependable home charging for renters. The company’s hardware and software platform delivers smart, right-sized charging that can reduce installation costs by up to 70%, while giving property owners and residents a simple, reliable charging experience with no ongoing software or networking fees.

Powered by OrangeNet, the company’s proprietary mesh network and edge-compute platform, Orange delivers 98%+ successful charge sessions, even in challenging environments like underground garages without relying on managed Wi-Fi or LTE extenders. This same platform establishes the foundation for Orange’s next generation of energy products designed to help properties participate in the broader energy economy and unlock new revenue streams.

Together, Southwire and Orange Charger are building the infrastructure needed to deliver affordable, reliable EV charging and future-ready energy solutions to communities everywhere.

Melissa Lystad’s introduction to military service began in an unexpected way. Unbeknownst to her, her fiancé had been talking to recruiters, and an invitation for a pizza dinner was extended. Little did she know that decision would soon lead to a lifelong sense of purpose.

“My now husband and I were barely scraping by, and a free pizza dinner offered during a military pitch sounded fantastic,” she said. “While there, my husband mentioned that I have an affinity to learning languages, as I was already using Spanish in my work at the local clinic, and both recruiters took a hard run at me.” 

Following pizza and paperwork, Lystad’s long and meaningful journey with the U.S. Navy began. She enlisted in 1997 and progressed through a variety of roles as a foreign language analyst. 

“My decision to join the Navy has changed my life, and for that I am forever grateful,” she said. “In my 22-year military career, I’ve been lucky enough to visit some of the most amazing places on earth.” 

Lystad retired from service as a Cryptologic Technician, Interpretive (CTI) Chief Petty Officer in 2019. That same year, she joined CACI as part of a program that provides foreign language services to the customer, seamlessly aligning her Navy expertise with the company’s mission. 

With CACI, Lystad has grown her skills through exposure to new projects and challenges. In her current role as CACI’s only Foreign Language Talent and Tradecraft Manager, she is responsible for anticipating the needs of fellow language analysts and ensuring they have access to the most current tools, training, and insights.

“I’ve worked for CACI for over six years now following my military separation,” she said. “This my third role with the company, and I’m still really happy to be here.”

Lystad’s time in the Navy not only shaped her skills but her mindset and work ethic. She carries these values forward with her as she breaks new ground with CACI. 

“The Navy taught me to document everything, guided by the phrase, ‘if it ain’t on paper, it didn’t happen.’ I also learned the importance of strong communication — always yelling up the chain, not down,” she said. “That mindset, along with the network I’ve built over the years, helps me support our analysts with clarity and confidence.”

CACI’s mission emphasizes the importance of service to the nation. The company’s workforce has maintained a strong military presence that reinforces its mission-first mindset, which Lystad can attest to.

“Our contract is almost exclusively former military language analysts, and there is such joy in being able to offer follow-on careers in the field where they have the most skills,” she said. “The relief when a person is hired is fabulous to see, and it offers the opportunity to continue serving the nation — just in more comfortable clothes!”

Lystad’s journey is a reminder that purpose often appears in ways we never anticipate. What began as a simple decision in a difficult moment ultimately led her to a career and community where her skills, experience, and passion continue to make a real impact.

“I don’t know that I would have ever expected to say, ‘Wow do I love my job,’ but here I am, killing it!” she said.  “I’m so grateful to be doing something that I enjoy so much and helps others with their heavy lift as well.”
