Quiddity Foundation

We are proud to partner with our amazing team members to help kids in the STEM field. We are looking forward to their year-end presentations this week where they apply all they learned through the year!!

A big thank you to our Austin members for their community clean-up event at the Umlauf Sculpture Museum. Volunteer Day was a success because of you!

During the Feed the Hunger Packathon in Katy, our Quiddity Foundation volunteers played a crucial role in helping package over 140,000 meals! This accomplishment goes beyond mere numbers; it reflects our dedication to the core principle of 'Serving Community. Each meal we assembled symbolizes progress in the ongoing battle against hunger, and we extend heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined hands with us in this impactful initiative. We eagerly look forward to continuing our support for this cause and nurturing a culture of positive change.

The Quiddity Foundation had the honor of hosting Klein Collins High School's Job Shadow Day through Junior Achievement! This national campaign offers students unique perspectives on academics through hands-on learning and a one-day mentoring experience by engaging in a business orientation, job site tours, employee shadowing, and workplace activities. The initiative's goal is to help students recognize the connections between academics and future career paths, enhance networking skills, cultivate professional communication & leadership abilities, and gain valuable insights into a variety of careers. We extend our sincere gratitude for the opportunity and are excited to continue supporting this vital effort in the future!

We have an incredible opportunity to embody one of our core principles, "Serving Community," and we invite you to be a part of it! Quiddity is hosting a table at the Feed the Hunger Packathon event in Katy, and we're seeking enthusiastic volunteers. A Packathon is a food packing event where participants create thousands of nutritious meals for distribution through Feed the Hunger partners to children and families facing hunger. Volunteer teams collaborate to assemble four essential ingredients: a carbohydrate, a protein, dehydrated vegetables, and vitamin powder. These ingredients are packed, weighed, sealed, and boxed for distribution. The Quiddity Foundation is thrilled to support this initiative, and together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of others! For more information on the Packathon, please head to the Feed the Hunger Katy website. https://lnkd.in/eqvQrQk

HEADWATERS AT THE COMAL, a conservation project by New Braunfels Utilities, is dedicated to protecting Texas's natural resources and educating the public on the importance of ecological conservation. In the past, the Quiddity Foundation provided financial support to Headwaters at the Comal. Moving forward, we are taking a step further by sponsoring the Headwaters' Saturday SEAM Series, a monthly educational program for K–3rd grade students and their families. The SEAM Program allows students to learn about Science, Engineering, Art, and Math (SEAM) while being immersed in nature.

The Quiddity Foundation extends sincere thanks to the 26 amazing donors from our DFW offices, raising an impressive total of $2,430 for our annual Toy for Tots event for Collin County. These generous contributions resulted in 25 bikes and 17 scooters! Heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to making this possible. Cheers to the spirit of giving, and we eagerly anticipate making next year's event even more special!

The Quiddity Foundation extends its gratitude to all those who contributed to making this event a reality. Your involvement is truly valued. With only approximately 15% of engineers being women, we are eager to sustain and build upon this initiative.

Each year, our CANstruction initiative comes to life as each Quiddity department participates in a friendly competition to create the most impressive structure from donated canned goods. Post-event, all contributions are directed to local food banks to help prepare for the holiday season. In celebration of our 8th annual event, the Quiddity Foundation spearheaded a company-wide canned food drive, resulting in the delivery of 5,684 canned food items to various food banks across Texas! This collective effort reaffirmed our commitment to serving our community and making a tangible difference. We extend our heartfelt thanks to every member of the Quiddity family who contributed to this impactful accomplishment!

We are proud to have collaborated with AASHTO and TxDOT in launching their STEM program, Bridging the STEM Gap. This program revolves around a curriculum tailored to introduce students in grades 8–12 to the fields of transportation and civil engineering. Thank you to our team members who volunteered their time to make this possible, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with this important initiative.
