Advanced technologies are shaping a new landscape, and the challenge is real- bridging the skills gap between the emerging workforce and the demands of a new era of advanced manufacturing. Recent reports suggest the UK has a pressing need to address skills shortages in tech and industrial sectors. Earlier this year, Ford Philanthropy, the philanthropic arm of Ford Motor Company, in partnership with GlobalGiving kicked off a £1 million community investment to supercharge Halewood and the wider Liverpool city region. This investment is all about expanding access to essential services and empowering young people for the future world of work. Take a look at the students at Liverpool Life Sciences UTC diving deep into project-based learning with Power BI, using real-world data from the plant. Their interactive data dashboards are a game-changer, making a head-start on the future of data-driven decision-making in the auto industry. Also, if you are a Knowsley or Halewood based non-profit in search of partnerships, Ford Philanthropy have just opened its grant applications. Take the leap to transform your communities: https://lnkd.in/eFsxy9Sw #skillgaps #liverpool #innovation #datascience #philanthropy #community #futureofwork #automotive

Private philanthropic foundations play an increasingly important role in development, providing vital funding for areas like global public health, education, rights movements, and clean energy. Although philanthropic funding is smaller in volume terms than aid flows, it can be more flexible, innovative, and disruptive than funding from other sources.

William Aaron, M.Ed., nonprofits such as yours play a crucial role in building and sustaining healthy, vibrant communities. Nonprofits provide vital support to individuals and families facing challenges such as homelessness, hunger, health disparities, education barriers, and more. They offer a helping hand, a listening ear, and a beacon of hope for those in need. Nonprofits serve as connectors, bringing together people from diverse backgrounds, industries, and perspectives to work towards common goals. They create a sense of unity and collaboration that strengthens the fabric of our community. Nonprofits deliver tangible results that make a real difference in the lives of individuals and the well-being of our community. Their impact is felt in the stories of transformation, the numbers of lives touched, and the lasting legacy of positive change. Let's celebrate the invaluable contributions of nonprofits in our community and pledge our support to their mission of creating a brighter, more inclusive future for all. Together, we can amplify their impact and empower them to continue making a meaningful difference in the world. #Nonprofits #CommunityImpact #SocialGood #GJC (George Johnson & Company) #Detroit
