Aligned with our commitment of supporting the communities in which we operate, we support following corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs in India:

  • Pratt & Whitney supports United Way India in improving lives by mobilizing the caring power of communities to build a stronger India. Present in seven cities, Bangalore, Baroda, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata and Mumbai, United Way India strives to leverage the talents and expertise of the community to craft solutions to India's unique social problems and set the standard for results and accountability.
  • Pratt & Whitney, the University of Connecticut (UConn) and Engineers Without Borders – India have collaborated to install 100 e-Learning centres where elementary-age children can have access to highquality electronic education courses with a STEM emphasis. The e-Learning Centres serve approximately 600 students each year. Each centre features a modern facility equipped with the tools and technologies needed to support both teachers and students.
  • Girls Who Code leverages United Technologies Corporation's support and Pratt & Whitney's in-country resources to expand coding clubs in Bangalore, Delhi and Hyderabad. The program partners with schools and orphanages to set up free clubs and provide girls with the skills and tools necessary for success in engineering and technology fields, thereby encouraging the pursuit of careers in STEM.
