| As a world leader in the information technology
industry, Toshiba America Electronic Components (TAEC)
is committed to serving as a model for local companies
to take an active role in our community. Through partnership
programs, Toshiba can be counted upon to work with corporations
to accept the challenge of rounding out the opportunities
for all residents.
Whether through Toshiba employees voluntarily pitching
in or by financial commitment, TAEC supports a variety
of communityoriented enterprises. Toshiba management
encourages employee participation in local communityoriented
causes by supporting employees who volunteer.
These individuals volunteer on their own time and choose
those programs and projects that they wish to support.
TAEC strengthens these programs and projects by contributing
financial donations to these nonprofit groups with whom
employees volunteer. TAEC makes unique contributions
with both funds and people to various organizations.
These contributions enhance opportunities for local schools
to expand their interest in math, science and technology.
Beyond its participation with local programs, the Toshiba
America Foundation is another rich resource which bolsters
mathematics and science education projects in grades
712.
TAEC supports the Toshiba/NSTA Exploravision Awards a
science competition for grades K12 for students of all
skill and ability levels across the US and Canada. The
purpose of this competition (the largest science competition
in the US) is to encourage students to combine their
imaginations with the tools of science and technology
to create and explore a vision of the future.
