Northrop Grumman’s Philanthropic Initiatives

Northrop Grumman’s philanthropic initiatives focus on building meaningful partnerships that transform our communities. Working with our dynamic partners, we strive to support the diverse needs of the communities where we live and work through giving from the company, the Northrop Grumman Foundation and employees. Our core areas of focus include STEM education, military and veterans, health and human services, and the environment.


Company Giving

Our corporate contributions support accredited public schools and 501(c)(3) nonprofits within our areas of focus. Northrop Grumman and the Northrop Grumman Foundation do not accept unsolicited requests for funding.


The Northrop Grumman Foundation

The Northrop Grumman Foundation is dedicated to increasing STEM educational opportunities for students so they can fill future workforce needs for talented and diverse professionals. Our education strategy focuses on supporting engineering and technology-based programs and initiatives, primarily focused on middle school through university students, that increase workforce readiness with an emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion. Additionally, we support our employee’s contributions to qualified educational institutions through the Northrop Grumman Foundation Matching Gifts for Education program.
