As Alcoa reports, their Alcoa Foundation contributions exceeded US$21 Million in the year 2011. The focus of the support is on environment, education and volunteerism.
“We focus on the environment because as a mining, manufacturing and engineering company, we can contribute our expertise, resources and people to reduce, recycle, replenish and set standards. We invest in STEM education and workforce development in manufacturing, because these pursuits are fundamental to the long-term success of companies like Alcoa and to societies around the world,” said Klaus Kleinfeld, Chairman and CEO, Alcoa.
