Avangrid Foundation Projects with Our Partners

DEVELOPING THE NEXT GENERATION OF ENERGY LEADERS

Education is important to us. The Foundation partnered with several schools, research institutes and museums
to support S.T.E.M., environment and climate action-related curriculum development and educational programs.

Partner:  Girls Inc. Eureka!

 

MissionThe Avangrid Foundation and Berkshire Gas are committed to supporting individuals and communities they serve.  By providing leadership support for the local Eureka Program, doors can be opened for underserved young women creating pathways for them to ultimately assume leadership roles in a wide variety of STEM fields.  Supporting opportunities to learn about all that is possible and available to motivated young women is vitally important to Avangrid, The Avangrid Foundation and to Berkshire Gas.
