“We're driven by our passion for innovation and remain dedicated
to expanding how we support our partners and the communities in
which we live and work,” said Karem Pérez, executive director of
the Motorola Solutions Foundation.
In 2023, Motorola Solutions employees’ generosity surpassed
company records, with nearly 100,000 hours volunteered and more
than 500 volunteer events worldwide, generating $3.2 million* in
value for charitable organizations. Additionally, the Foundation’s
annual grants program directed $10.3 million in strategic grants to
organizations benefiting first responder programs and technology
and engineering education.
To further extend its impact, the Foundation also introduced two
new programs: the Bright Minds, Bold Futures Scholarship, which
awarded $100,000 USD in scholarships to 37 deserving students from
underserved and underrepresented communities pursuing technology
and engineering careers, and the Grant Partner Summit on First
Responder Wellness, which convened 17 partners from across North
America to promote collaboration and learn best practices.
"Our connection with the Motorola Solutions Foundation resembles
that of a close-knit family," said Laurie Putnam, co-founder of the
Survivors of Blue Suicide Foundation, a Foundation grant partner
and Summit participant. "They exhibit genuine concern for our
organization and are dedicated to seeing our mission thrive."
The Foundation was also awarded Benevity’s Community Impact
Award, which celebrates the inclusive and creative ways brands are
making a difference in the world through their giving, volunteering
and community investment programs. The award, Pérez said, is a
reflection of the Foundation’s efforts, as well as the passion of
employees who engaged not only in helping select grant recipients,
but in supporting their communities through service.
“Year after year, Motorolans around the world continue to show
up, break records and give the best of themselves to help drive
meaningful change,” said Pérez. “It’s an important part of who we
are, and we look forward to carrying our energy and momentum into
2024."
