social investment

The Chevron Humankind program in the U.S. aligns personal purpose with company purpose to support Chevron’s People Strategy. The goal of the program is to enrich the employee experience and encourage community involvement. Steve Gerber is a shining example. As a model volunteer, he contributed more than 800 hours of his time to the Young Marines of the Marine Corps League.

Chevron recognizes that STEM education plays an important role in advancing innovation, research and technology. We support teacher training programs to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers and problem-solvers. Since 2016, more than $450 million has been invested in education partnerships and programs worldwide.

Chevron contributes funding and support to the Pecos Watershed Conservation Initiative, a public-private partnership that aims to restore and sustain the health of the Pecos River and its tributaries in the Permian Basin. The initiative is focused on habitat restoration and improving the management of grasslands, agricultural lands and riparian areas in the region.

Chevron contributed to Miller Center for Social Entrepreneurship to support Asia-Pacific enterprises that have the potential to grow and scale their social and economic impact. With our three-year gift of $1 million, Miller Center aims to provide focused support for entrepreneurs and share insights with other accelerator programs and the larger social entrepreneurship ecosystem. The entrepreneurship program provides a suite of support services, including capacity and leadership development, training and mentoring, and investment readiness and facilitation. Through this effort, Miller Center aims to support a cohort of social enterprises to accelerate innovative, bottom-up solutions for vulnerable communities in the region.
