Chemours’ commitment to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education for all extends to even the littlest learners. Now, children in several communities surrounding Chemours’ Washington Works site in West Virginia have access to powerful STEM learning experiences in their schools and neighborhoods, thanks to a new “STEAM Machine” learning mobile unit.

Launched by Discovery World on Market, the Chemours-supported STEAM Machine will help overcome the two most significant barriers to STEM learning in the surrounding communities: cost and time. The mobile STEM learning center is in addition to the over 70 guided and self-guided in-house field trips at the Discovery World on Market that will run from April through May alone. The STEAM Machine’s ability to extend Discovery World’s reach and inspire even more children to develop a love for STEM and problem-solving early in their education is invaluable.

Chemours helped to fund and outfit the STEAM Machine with mobile STEM technology, so it can travel to communities and schools across the Mid-Ohio Valley and the State of West Virginia, with the aim of spreading the love for STEM and providing youth with opportunities for hands-on learning experiences. The inaugural event for the STEAM Machine will take place in Bridgeport, West Virginia reaching well beyond Discovery World’s original established reach.

The STEAM Machine is already making waves in the local community, with bookings for five major events: Kids to Work Day at Chemours, YMCA Healthy Kids Day, Mid-Ohio Valley Multicultural Festival, and two First Fridays in Marietta, Ohio. These events are anticipated to draw substantial crowds and foster a deeper interest in STEM among young learners. Moreover, Discovery World has shown remarkable success, with total attendance reaching over 48,000 guests in 2024.

Chemours Washington Works’ support of the initiative is part of a multi-year STEM education grant for the Discovery World on Market, the Mid-Ohio Valley’s only children’s museum. Since 2023, the Chemours grant has provided hundreds of museum admission passes for underserved children and their families and helped to fund and execute Science Saturdays. These and many other events have introduced STEM concepts to kids and visitors of all ages in a fun, engaging, and hands-on manner.

Verizon

Embracing technology in the classroom doesn’t come naturally to all teachers. But for two Verizon Innovative Learning School Coaches — Jennifer Doherty at William Sheppard Middle School in San Jose, California, and Dr. RoseMarie McCandless at the Grace M. James Academy of Excellence in Louisville, Kentucky — a passion for tech integration and supporting other teachers became the cornerstone of their professional careers.

This focus on how technology elevates learning drove them to new heights in leadership roles and on to new positions in administration at their respective schools. Doherty was named principal in 2021 and McCandless became assistant principal in October 2024.

For both women, the Verizon Innovative Learning professional development resources — which are available for free to all as part of Verizon Innovation Learning HQ — were foundational. “I was nervous being out of the classroom,” says McCandless, referring to her initial experience with remote teaching. “But once I got into the professional development lessons, I felt a lot more confident. A lot of what I learned there, especially the micro-credentials courses, was really how to coach and how to support teachers — and that’s what I do all day as an assistant principal.”

Before joining William Sheppard Middle School, Doherty already had experience working on classroom tech integration which made her a strong candidate to become the Verizon Innovative Learning Schools Coach when Sheppard became part of the program in 2017. “In my previous experience, the technology itself was never the thing that mattered most,” Doherty says of classroom tech integration. “It was the pedagogy,” she says, how technology as a tool enhances learning, increasing engagement for both teachers and students. “And because the Verizon professional development shared that focus, the 40 hours of training was really key and really spoke to me,” she says.

When a Verizon Innovative Learning Lab was installed at Sheppard, all 22 teachers participated in the professional development micro-credential series. This training helps educators infuse technology into their teaching in increasingly sophisticated ways, all with the goal of creating learning experiences that increase student engagement and achievement.

“We really leaned into that professional development piece,” says Doherty. She wanted to make certain teachers were doing more than simply swapping a book for a screen. “It was important to make sure the teachers were using digital tools beyond substituting,” she explains. Thanks to the course work, teachers didn’t have to come up with ideas all on their own, but instead gathered lesson plan inspiration woven throughout the courses. One example: Instead of a traditional book report, students in an English Language Arts class could make a movie trailer about a book. “The teachers were so inspired. They were all like, ‘YES.’ It was so beautiful,” Doherty says.

In 2021, when the school’s principal went on leave, Doherty was asked to step in as interim principal. “Principal had never been on my trajectory,” says Doherty. But since she was a Verizon Innovative Learning Schools Coach, and already in a leadership position, other teachers felt comfortable with her stepping up. “I was a known entity and people trusted me—and I had been doing a lot of the roles of job with [the principal],” Doherty explains. “So in terms of skills, taking on the role of principal wasn’t a big reach. But it was a confidence issue,” Doherty says. “Can I lead? Can I do this?”

The answer was a clear ‘yes’. After a year in the interim role, she received positive feedback from the district and went on to secure the needed credentials to officially take the position.

While Doherty had focused on technology as a teaching tool that drove student and teacher engagement, McCandless prioritized doing the best for her students. “When I first started teaching, I didn’t think I would ever want to be a teacher leader, because I loved what I was doing with my kids,” she says. “But then I figured out that the more that I learned, the better I can be for my kids. And then if I help the teachers succeed, then I will be helping more kids.”

The professional development coursework gave McCandless new ways to understand her own skills. “One of the first things I ever did was make a coaching menu, so I could talk about what I offer and market myself to my teachers,” she says. “The exercise helped me understand how I’m valuable to others and how I could support teachers.”

As assistant principal, McCandless has taken that core idea and applied it to her work in building up her teachers’ confidence. “We had a brand-new teacher who had literally taught for just one semester and he presented to all the other teachers about engaging ways to present social studies source content, and I just had chills,” she says. “Seeing their development, sharing what they’re good at with the other teachers — it just doesn’t get better than that.”

Verizon Innovative Learning is a key part of the company’s responsible business plan to help move the world forward for all. As part of the plan, Verizon has an ambitious goal of providing 10 million youth with digital skills training by 2030. Educators can access free lessons, professional development, and immersive learning experiences to help bring new ways of learning into the classroom by visiting Verizon Innovative Learning HQ.

New Holland Construction, CNH‘s construction equipment brand, celebrates 75 years of operation in Brazil.

Present in all states, with a network of dealerships structured to serve customers with excellence, the brand celebrates more than seven decades contributing to the development and progress of the region.

The brand is now established in Minas Gerais, where its factory is located, in Contagem and the Customer Experience Center, in Sarzedo, recently inaugurated with an investment of R$12 million.

“The CEC is a space that offers product and service demonstrations, performs engineering tests and the technical and commercial training of our dealer network, elevating the customer experience and further reinforcing the proximity to the brand,” says Pedro Silva, leader of New Holland Construction for Latin America.

Sustainability and excellence

Like all CNH plants in Brazil, the Contagem plant is zero landfill, correctly disposing of 100% of the waste, seeking environmentally appropriate solutions for each type.

Solid waste from industrial activity includes wood, plastic, cardboard, organic material and oil.. The wood is sent for biomass production; the solvent used in the paint is recycled and reused internally; organic waste is composted; the technological effluent passes through an Effluent Treatment Station for reuse in discharges, cleaning the factory floor or testing on machines.

This result is achieved thanks to the separation, packaging and transportation of materials, done internally by a team responsible for waste management.

New Holland Construction’s Parts Distribution Center in Sorocaba (SP) also achieved the Zero Landfill goal.

The building, inaugurated in 2010, has 66 thousand m² and was built within the modern concepts of Green Building, which identify the construction and the enterprise as environmentally responsible. All the material used in the construction had its origin certified to ensure that the work did not use predatory elements to nature. For this reason, the Distribution Center received the Green Building certification from the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) – one of the most prestigious certifying entities in the world.

New Holland Construction’s DC was the first in the sector in South America to receive LEED Gold certification, the most important international environmental seal for sustainable buildings.

Cummins

Carrying a giant, black folded foam pad on her back, Alexandra Toth hikes a path surrounded by towering southern red oak trees in a Tennessee forest. She is on her way to boulder at one of her favorite rock-climbing spots.

“I did not like bouldering when I first started climbing,” Alexandra admits. “It was so hard. I couldn’t figure out how to do it. I didn’t feel strong enough. So I tried other types of climbing, and over time, especially as I started to climb outside, I found that bouldering was actually my favorite.”

Unlike traditional rock climbing, bouldering doesn’t use a safety rope. It’s highly dependent on the balance, grip and technique of the climber to complete a sequence of moves called a “problem.” Rather than moving toward neck-craning heights, Alexandra must find her way through a shorter climb with condensed, complex formations. She must think creatively and rely on her flexibility to figure out the movements that work best towards finding the solution, the giant, black folded foam pad there to catch her if she can’t.

Climbers may have to put a heel well above their head, hang upside down, and carefully but forcefully swing a leg or arm from one spot to the next. It’s why Alexandra describes boulders as hard puzzles.

“As someone who has always loved a puzzle to solve and finding different solutions, it’s what attracted me to bouldering — a way to exercise my mind and my body, but also find these unique ways to problem-solve.”

Alexandra’s passion for rock climbing was born from an even deeper passion for the environment that began when she attended a unique elementary and middle school located down the river from a national park. Much of the curriculum focused on environmental education. Field trips and activities included spending a weekend backpacking through a forest, learning how to kayak and flip the kayak back over if you tipped, climbing rocks and alpine towers, and mastering how to use a compass to navigate your way through the woods.

After taking an environmental science course in high school, Alexandra knew she wanted to apply those learnings into her career. So she did just that.

As an Environmental and Product Data Manager at Cummins Inc., Alexandra focuses on technology investment portfolio analysis and product greenhouse gas emissions accounting, strategic planning and reporting. Her goal is to help Cummins make investment decisions as technology evolves through the energy transition.

“Most of Cummins’ greenhouse gas footprint is from product emissions,” Alexandra explains. “So, how do we make the products more efficient, use low-carbon fuels, make renewable fuels, electrify, or use alternative powertrain pathways to reduce emissions for the world?”

Those are exactly the questions Alexandra hopes to answer. For the past three and a half years, she’s been studying market trends, tracking engineering research and development expenses, and analyzing the emissions of application technologies to ensure the company creates a product portfolio that meets the needs of its customers now while also supporting a more sustainable future.

“I think that’s one of the foundational aspects of Cummins: We have so many products that apply to different industries, and we’re all going to move at different rates and speeds through this energy transition,” Alexandra shares. “We’re making investments in all these different technologies so that we have foundational building blocks that will set us up when the market turns or when an industry shifts.”

Ultimately, Alexandra’s eagerness to solve problems, coupled with her deep appreciation for the environment combined seamlessly with her position at Cummins Inc. Her passion for the outdoors has continued to follow her throughout her life, from adolescence to adulthood, weaving between her career and personal adventures.

“Reflecting on younger me, I’m very proud of the work I do now,” Alexandra says. Her role at Cummins is one way she can help protect the places where she finds serenity and peace.

Navigating the energy transition is not an easy task, but Alexandra isn’t one to shy away from a challenge. Every time she falls while bouldering, she’s quick to dust herself off, chalk her hands and try a different path. It’s the same mindset she applies to her work.

“Rock climbing can feel like 99% failure, but you have to remember it’s okay to fail,” she explains. “It’s okay to be wrong. The most important part is you learning from it and changing your approach. The beta [your solution to a rock climb] may be different depending on how strong you’re feeling that day, how much you prepared or weather conditions, and I think this actually parallels really well with the energy transition — how we all are going to have to adapt and evolve.”

Like Cummins, Alexandra believes there is no single solution for everyone, nor are all obstacles ahead predictable and controllable. However, as Alexandra believes, “those who find success are the ones who learned along the way to find the best approach at the moment.”

International Olympic Committee news

With one year to go until the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, new research from SWG commissioned by Coca-Cola Italy reveals that Italians see the Olympic Games as a powerful force for unity, inclusion and social change.

The study highlights the deep emotional connection Italians have with values such as respect, solidarity and perseverance – values that 8 out of 10 Italians say they support when cheering for athletes. Notably, 84 per cent of Italians believe that the Olympic values can promote social inclusion and help make sport a driver of change.

The study also highlights how the Olympic Games captivate Italians across all age groups, with 7 out of 10 following the event with passion and curiosity, including 65 per cent of those aged under 30.

The research findings underpin independent research conducted by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), which demonstrated that around five billion people followed the inspirational achievements of the Olympic athletes and the magic of the Olympic Games Paris 2024. The independent research for Paris had also found that 78 per cent of the people believe the Olympic Games are more important than ever in today’s world, and 75 per cent said the IOC was successful in Paris in bringing the world together in peaceful competition.

The Games in Paris also demonstrated the unprecedented global appeal of the Olympic Games and that the Olympic values truly resonate with younger generations. According to an independent brand tracker study conducted in September 2024, the relevance of the Olympic Games with Gen Z around the world is now higher than with the general population. The tracker also showed that Olympic values resonate particularly well with the younger generations.

IOC President Thomas Bach welcomed the new findings, emphasising the enduring significance of the Olympic values and the strength of the IOC’s partnership with Coca-Cola, which began in 1928.

This research confirms once again that the Olympic values of respect, friendship and excellence have the power to unite and inspire people across generations and communities and resonate in particular with younger audiences. For nearly a century, the IOC and The Coca-Cola Company have shared a commitment to promoting these values and using sport as a force for good. With just one year to go until Milano Cortina 2026, we are thrilled to see the excitement building in Italy and the strong belief in the power of the Games to bring people together and drive positive change.

IOC President

A shared celebration

The survey indicates that 62 per cent of Italians say they feel proud to host Milano Cortina 2026, while also recognising that the event can strengthen the country’s sense of unity, according to 59 per cent of respondents.

The research further highlights the Olympic Games as a moment of cultural enrichment and inspiration, with 72 per cent of Italians being encouraged by past editions to learn more about different sports, while 64 per cent have explored the history and traditions of other nations through the Games. The Paralympic Games are also playing a crucial role in raising awareness, particularly among younger generations – 66 per cent of Italians under 30 express a keen interest in the experiences of Paralympic athletes, both on and off the field.

The Olympic flame: A symbol of connection across Italy

The upcoming Olympic Torch Relay, set to begin in Rome on 6 December 2025, will bring the spirit of the Games to communities across Italy, before culminating at the Opening Ceremony in Milan on 6 February 2026. Two out of three Italians see the journey of the Olympic flame as an opportunity to connect people nationwide, reinforcing the inclusive spirit of the Games.

Andrea Varnier, CEO of the Fondazione Milano Cortina 2026, highlighted the significance of The Coca-Cola Company’s support and the unifying role of the Olympic flame.

The partnership between Milano Cortina 2026 and Coca-Cola is expressed through a fully collaborative relationship based on mutual trust. We have already shared many projects since the beginning of this journey, and the most significant one that sees us particularly united is definitely the journey of the flame, a symbol of cohesion of all Italian territories.

Andrea Varnier
CEO of the Fondazione Milano Cortina 2026

“Added to these is the study that, one year before the Games, offers a clear snapshot of the positive feeling Italians have about the event: so much enthusiasm, belonging, unity and pride. The research is therefore a key step in building the legacy that this great event will leave to the country and remain available for the next generations. We thank Coca-Cola, which, with its long experience in the Olympic world, shows its support, promotes the Italian Games and contributes significantly to their success,” says Varnier.

Torchbearers will play a central role in this symbolic journey, with Italians expressing a strong desire to see ordinary people with extraordinary stories carrying the flame. Among the Among supporters, 21 per cent say they would like to be torchbearers themselves, seeing it as a moment of personal pride and a dream come true.

Sport as a unifying force for good

Presented at the Centre for American Studies in Rome as part of the Milano Cortina 2026 Cultural Olympiad programme, the research underscores the role of sport to foster unity and inclusion.

The research reaffirms the belief that sport extends beyond competition, serving as a tool for inclusion, education and overcoming differences. For many Italians, cheering is not just about supporting national athletes, but also about celebrating the values they represent. According to the study, 8 out of 10 Italians say they cheer for values such as respect, solidarity and perseverance, reinforcing the idea that the Olympic Games can play a crucial role in building a more inclusive society.

These values also shape Italians’ perceptions of athletes, associating champions not only with skill and performance, but also with loyalty, sportsmanship and setting an example beyond the field of play.

As the countdown to Milano Cortina 2026 continues, this research highlights the excitement in the host nation of Italy and the enduring power of the Olympic values to inspire individuals and unite communities.

For CACI’s De Borah Grant, defying the odds is nothing new.

In middle school, she was an avid member of an engineering club and took home top honors in an essay contest sponsored by a local sorority chapter. She graduated high school at 16 and went on to become the first in her family to earn a college degree.

Now, as a much-respected leader in her field, Grant devotes much of her time to investing back into communities like the one she grew up in.

“I want young people to know that they too can soar. I want to be a beacon of hope for those who, like me, might not have been expected to reach this point,” she said. “I want to show others that by fighting against the odds, they too can find a path to success with the right roadmap and resources.”

Grant’s journey wasn’t easy. She balanced her full-time studies with three jobs while at Baltimore’s Morgan State University, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in computer information systems.

“I initially had no clear direction for my career or why I was attending college,” she shared. “I just knew I wanted to create a foundation for growth and achievement, striving to reach the full potential I believed was possible for me.”

After graduation, she worked as a data processing analyst at the University of Maryland’s Women, Infants & Children program. Because of her own roots, she related to the clients she served, and that connection made her even more passionate about the job.

She joined CACI in 2022, bringing with her two decades of dedicated IT project management experience. In her current role as a functional consultant, she supports IT solutions on a global scale and works alongside CACI leadership to deliver positive outcomes to a range of government defense and intelligence customers.

Her dedication to giving back has a natural outlet at CACI. She regularly volunteers with CACI Cares, the company’s philanthropic program, supporting events like the Navy League Sea-Air-Space STEM expo, which inspires students to explore careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). She also participates in the program’s charity walks, career fairs, and veteran-focused initiatives including Wreaths Across America.

Grant is also a champion for the next generation of STEM leaders. Her various volunteer efforts and speaking engagements reflect a profound dedication to paving the way for others through guidance, education, and support. Outside the office, she can be found working with multiple youth development organizations by providing workshops and mentorship.

“People often ask me when I find time to rest, given my involvement in so many organizations,” she said. “My response is always the same—I’ll have plenty of time to rest when my purpose on this earth is fulfilled.”

Grant has earned several honors for her professional work and community outreach, including recognition from the Department of Justice. In February, she received an Outstanding Achievement Award at the Black Engineer of the Year Awards (BEYA) Global Competitiveness Conference for her determination to serving the STEM community. Most recently, De Borah was honored with the 2025 Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award—a prestigious program that recognizes exemplary individuals who have contributed more than 4,000 hours of volunteer public service.

CACI’s culture, rooted in ethics and integrity, not only drives its progress but also empowers its workforce to make an impact beyond their daily roles. By fostering an environment of independence and trust, CACI enables employees to excel both in their careers and in their communities. The company ensures that its employees feel supported in their pursuits and recognized for their contributions—values that deeply resonate with Grant.

“CACI cultivates an accessible, supportive culture where every team member is encouraged to grow and give back,” she said. “Our corporate social responsibility efforts and outreach reflect CACI’s investment in its people—empowering individuals to live their values and make meaningful contributions, which I believe are the keys to success.”
