Overview
<p>Voya Foundation’s mission is to improve the quality of life in communities where Voya Financial operates and its employees and customers live. Voya Foundation provides grants and establishes signature partnerships under the umbrella of Financial Resilience: ensuring that youth are equipped with the STEM expertise necessary to compete in the 21st century workforce and the financial literacy skills necessary to make smart financial decisions that lead to a secure retirement.</p> <p>We accomplish this by accepting year-round grant applications from organizations that:<br>• Provide innovative and experiential K-8 STEM learning opportunities to promote an early interest in STEM career fields, and improve teachers’ capabilities in STEM; or<br>• Provide financial literacy curriculum to grade 9-12 students focused on navigating major financial milestones including student debt, credit, home ownership, financial products and services/financial capability, and family financial planning.</p>
Other Information:<p>Grant proposal addresses important considerations:<br>• Geographic reach: city, state, regional or national level.<br>• Employee engagement, ability to leverage volunteerism.<br>• Appropriate scope of the initiative being supported or impact made to the community relative to the requested amount.<br>• Previous support of the organization by Voya Financial/Voya Foundation (given there is no excessive frequency, duration or total dollars previously allocated).</p>Last Updated:
