Together, they seek to address not only the result of poverty, but also some of its many causes. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The awards we&#8217;re announcing today address challenges that too many Americans face,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Jeff Guyton<\/span>, president of Mazda North American Operations and chairman of the Mazda Foundation (<span class=\"xn-location\">USA<\/span>), Inc. &#8220;Those challenges range from basic food security to equal access to the building blocks of education. Everyone needs these fundamentals in order to thrive.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The grants to the food banks aim to increase the delivery of food to families in need at a time that demand has skyrocketed, with recent estimates placing that increase at +60% since <span class=\"xn-chron\">March 2020<\/span>. The award to FUSE will fund STEM coursework for several underserved middle schools, and the award to AVID will ensure underserved students have the opportunity not only to be admitted to college, but to succeed once they arrive. <\/p>\n<p><b>About Mazda Foundation (<span class=\"xn-location\">USA<\/span>), Inc.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>As the corporate foundation of Mazda North American Operations (MNAO), the Mazda Foundation has donated more than <span class=\"xn-money\">$13 million<\/span> to children&#8217;s organizations, educational scholarships, food banks, environmental programs, and disaster relief efforts since 1992.
