NCR Foundation exists to be a catalyst of opportunity and change. It is relentlessly focused on advancing STEM education for students, especially in under-served communities. NCR efforts to eliminate poverty and drive economic development include fostering job creation and provident training on critical workforce skills. And NCR steps up in times of crisis through disaster response work.

Yvonne Whitaker, Foundation Lead for the NCR Foundation, shared LOADS of insight with us, including:

• Her “both sides” perspective as a fundraiser and as a foundation executive
• Choosing causes and geographies to serve – a set of strategic, business decisions
• Impact – What’s the measurable outcome produced by the nonprofit? )This is the key factor in writing a grant request.)
• It’s an investment decision. Reinvest NCR revenue back into the communities that produced it.
• The grant process… (Some excellent hints and tips!)
• Why so much involvement with the Corporate Volunteer Council of Atlanta?

Thank you, Yvonne Whitaker, for your service to our community!
