BTW Managing Director Lande Ajose recently participated as a reviewer for the Walmart Foundation’s America Works Initiative.
America Works grants support innovative regions around the country that align local workforce systems with employers, educational institutions and nonprofits. The aim is to transition low- and moderate-income displaced workers into family-sustaining employment.
Twenty-two regions sought funding and the Walmart Foundation awarded a total of $3.4 million to seven nonprofits for workforce development efforts.
