Established in 2022 by ViaPath Technologies, the foundation focuses on four core pillars: youth support, advocacy, workforce development, and veteran reentry. This year’s recipients represent a diverse geographical reach, ranging from the North Omaha Community Partnership in Nebraska to the Harriott Community Healthcare Academy in Connecticut. These organizations provide services such as trauma-informed therapy, horticultural training, and paid apprenticeships designed to reduce recidivism and promote long-term stability.

Board Chair Naseem Caplette noted that the selected programs address pivotal moments in the lives of those affected by incarceration. By investing in practical solutions—such as providing housing essentials for female veterans in Los Angeles or funding STEAM education for at-risk youth in Houston—the foundation seeks to create lasting community impact. The grants provide not only operational funding but also the infrastructure necessary for these nonprofits to maintain consistent mentoring, case management, and employment training pathways.
