DESCRIPTION:
Each year the Schwab Foundation presents Social Entrepreneur of the Year awards to people who apply innovative, practical approaches to resolving social and environmental challenges.
Of the 24 awardees announced on February 15, 3 lead nonprofit organizations that Cisco partners with to promote education and economic empowerment around the world.
These visionary leaders have leveraged our support to continue investing in innovative solutions that create opportunities for underserved populations. In fact, their organizations are so effective that Cisco has approached them to support several of our own Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs.
