Last week, we celebrated International Youth Day, created by the United Nation to raise awareness of any issues that may be facing the world's youth to celebrate their achievements.

Moving towards the UN objective, Organon’s Employee Resource Groups are promoting STEM education by partnering with schools. Learn more in this article!

Hispanics Inspiring Student’s Performance and Achievement (HISPA)

HISPA is a nonprofit organization that inspires Latino students in the U.S. to discover their potential and ignite their desire to embrace education and achieve success.

Through the partnership with OHLA (Organon Hispanics, Latinos & Allies) ERG, our employees can share their stories, journey, and careers in STEM and truly make a difference to more than 17,000 Latino students from middle school to college in New Jersey, Texas, New York, Florida, and Pennsylvania.

Roxborough High School (Philadelphia School District)

The BLN (Black Leaders Network) ERG partnership with Roxborough High School supports BLN’s vision and mission to drive racial equality in the areas of business, science, and women's healthcare; and to promote diversity, equality, inclusion, and belonging within the community.

With this partnership, we are supporting, encouraging, and uplifting many “first generation” students in their academic journey, and getting black and brown students interested in STEM programs with the hope of recruiting future Organon employees and providing various career paths for students.

There are 54 students in total between 15 and 18 years from Germantown, North Philadelphia, Roxborough & Strawberry Mansion. Organon employees spoke out about the corporation, and their academic and career journey - providing inspiration and ideas for career paths to students. Besides this conversation, among the activities are mentoring, college prep, field trips, and college campus tours.

Roxborough High is the pilot school within the Philadelphia School District. The BLN goal is to expand to additional schools within the Philadelphia School District and others (e.g., NJ and beyond) in 2023. More to come!

Supporting and promoting education for the young generation foster a more diverse and inclusive community, society, and workplace. Our ERGs embrace our purpose and extend the belonging sense within the communities through their partnerships with schools and inspiring the next generations to embrace education.
