83 intel.com/responsibility 2021-22 Corporate Responsibility Report Global Volunteerism, Local Impact Volunteer Heroes. Each year, the Global Intel Involved Hero Awards program recognizes Intel super volunteers. Finalists receive $2,500 grants from the Intel Foundation for the charitable organization or school of their choice. The overall winner receives an additional $7,500 grant for his or her designated organization and is recognized at Intel’s Legends and Luminaries event celebrating the top employees’ achievements each year. This year’s global hero, Ankit Navik, started a mobile service program in 2014 to train students in India on the intricacies of mobile and PC repair and assembly. He recruited 35-plus volunteers for the project, which has now trained more than 180 students, many of whom have since secured jobs or opened their own businesses. The Association of People with Disability will receive a $10,000 grant in recognition of Navik’s many years of service. Other finalists from Costa Rica, India, Ireland, Israel, Mexico, Poland, and the US stepped up to support their communities in multiple ways—from planting trees and STEM tutoring, to strengthening nonprofit organization leadership and resilience. Grants for Volunteer Projects The Intel Foundation awards Seed Grants of up to $10,000 to support employee-initiated community service projects.
