Good news: you just got more time.

The Truist Foundation Inspire Awards deadline is now August 10, 2026.

AI is reshaping work faster than most workers can prepare for it. The nonprofits closing that gap through career navigation, workforce training, and AI literacy are doing some of the most urgent work in the country right now.

If that's your organization, don't let this one pass. Eligible nonprofits headquartered within the Truist footprint can apply here: https://hubs.li/Q04rZ_qp0

Meet Reva, from Maharashtra, India. She’s three and a half.

By the time she celebrates her sixth birthday, 85% of her brain will already be fully developed.

That means the conversations she has today, the games she plays, the stories she hears, and the people who care for her are quietly shaping the rest of her life.

The first six years are a child’s once-in-a-lifetime window, when the foundations for learning, health, confidence, and curiosity are built. At Rocket Learning , we’re working alongside parents and Anganwadi educators to build the strongest foundations for 6 million children across India.

Over the next 24 hours, we’re taking over Solve - MIT to show you what building an early learning movement at scale really looks like.

Stick with us in Stories today.
