HOUSTON, November 18, 2024 /3BL/ - The Baker Hughes Foundation announced Monday a total of $750,000 in grants to nonprofit organizations (NPOs) that promote our values and support local communities. For the fourth consecutive year — and in support of the Baker Hughes Foundation’s mission to advance environmental quality, education and opportunity, and health, safety and wellness around the world — the recipient NPO’s were nominated by Baker Hughes global employee resource groups (ERGs). The grants also support Baker Hughes’ commitment to advancing the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

At Baker Hughes, we believe unique ideas and perspectives fuel innovation, and our differences make us stronger. Baker Hughes’ ERGs offer all employees personal support, professional development, and a sense of belonging. Our eight ERGs, comprised of over 9,000 members, fuel our culture and support our strategic goals and are pivotal in driving employee engagement and volunteerism in our global communities. These groups have built strong partnerships with many nonprofits across the globe to drive social change for some of the world’s toughest challenges, including equality, education and well-being.

Collectively, these grants will support an array of causes across North America, South America, Asia-Pacific, Middle East, United Kingdom and Sub-Saharan Africa. Below are the charities awarded grants to drive impact in their communities:
