That’s exactly what the FCA Foundation is doing, and it’s an honor to recognize their contributions with this award.” The FCA Foundation provides philanthropic support to SAE’s A World In Motion (AWIM) STEM education program, which gives students from kindergarten through eighth grade the opportunity to develop critical thinking, communication and collaboration skills. “The FCA Foundation believes that education is essential to creating and sustaining strong and empowered communities,” said Christine Estereicher, FCA Foundation CEO and Director, State Affairs, Civic Engagement & External Affairs, FCA US LLC. “We are grateful for our partnership with SAE and the opportunities they afford our employees to affect a positive impact on youth in our communities.” In addition to providing funding for the program, FCA US employees serve as classroom volunteers, further enhancing the experience for students and teachers.
