    The 13th cohort of FeedMore WNY's free workforce development program, RISE, graduated yesterday, thanks in significant part to a grant from the Avangrid Foundation, the primary philanthropic arm of NYSEG's parent company Avangrid, Inc. (NYSE:AGR). The Avangrid Foundation recently awarded a $20,000 grant to FeedMore WNY, $10,000 of which supported the RISE program. The additional $10,000 from the grant was allocated for critical equipment improvements in FeedMore WNY's commissary.

    "On behalf of our entire team, I want to congratulate all of the RISE graduates on their monumental achievement," said Pedro Azagra, Avangrid CEO. "At Avangrid, we're committed to supporting programs and initiatives that create long-lasting impacts in our communities. FeedMore WNY's RISE program provides the skills, resources, and confidence needed to help graduates find gainful employment so that they can provide for themselves and their families."

    FeedMore WNY's RISE program is geared toward individuals who face high barriers to employment. The Avangrid Foundation grant enabled the 11 students comprising the 13th class of the RISE Logistics program to receive essential equipment, including steel-toed boots and class materials; earn multiple logistics certifications; and provide wraparound services, including transportation fare and daily meals. Upon graduation, all RISE students earn nationally recognized certifications for a career in logistics and have developed necessary skills to obtain gainful employment and achieve financial self-sufficiency. Many students receive multiple job offers from FeedMore WNY employer partners upon graduation.

    In addition, Avangrid Foundation's grant provided funds for necessary equipment upgrades within FeedMore WNY's commissary, which produces approximately 28,000 meals per week for older adults, neighbors who are homebound and unable to shop for or prepare food, as well as other area nonprofits. In 2023, FeedMore WNY provided more than 1.4 million prepared meals for the Western New York community.

    "There is no better way to invest in the future, than providing training that leads to secure jobs," said Trish Nilsen, president and CEO of NYSEG. "We know there is an ongoing need to address food insecurity in Western New York, and that's why we're pleased to join in FeedMore WNY's mission by not just giving food to families in need, but also creating opportunities for people to provide for their families through the RISE program."

    "FeedMore WNY is grateful for the continued partnership with NYSEG and the Avangrid Foundation, including their support through this generous grant. The support of the Avangrid Foundation has allowed us to provide more vital meals to our vulnerable neighbors as well as to play a key role in the transformation of the lives of our RISE students, providing hope and brighter futures for our graduates and their families," Tara A. Ellis, president and CEO of FeedMore WNY, said.
