Intel supports programs that improve the quality of life in its communities. Intel Russia has a strong commitment to the communities in which we work and live—and we encourage employees to do the same.

Education
In addition to the Intel® Higher Education Program, Intel supports school science contests and community programs that emphasize improving science, math, physics, and technology education. A perfect example of such activity is the "Talents of Nizhniy Novgorod Land" contest where, thanks to Intel's sponsorship, children from the villages and small towns are admitted into the prestigious Nizhniy Novgorod Sate University without completing entrance exams.
Grants & donation
Intel provides grants for non-governmental organizations (NGO) through programs that improve the quality of life in its communities. The program is focused on:
- Services offered and the program's impact on the youth of our community
- Diversity and multiculturalism
- Cost-effectiveness of the program
- Ability to be effectively measured and replicated
- Employees' potential for involvement
In 2006, grant programs were extended to NGOs from Nizhniy Novgorod, Novosibirsk, and St Petersburg. Additionally, Intel employees organized a toy and clothes drive for the benefit of local orphanages.
Intel Involved
Many Intel employees in Russia devote their time as volunteers in their communities. Intel Involved volunteer projects are compatible with Intel's values, and the initiatives for the projects come from both the employees and the community. Intel's employees volunteer to renovate playgrounds, plant trees, organize educational excursions and trainings for underserved youth, and much more.
Intel Computer Clubhouse
On October 12, 2006, Intel opened the first Computer Clubhouse in Nizhniy Novgorod. This new project is part of a network of more than 100 of Intel's Computer Clubhouses worldwide, set up to provide community-based technology-learning programs and ensure that underserved youth gain access to modern technologies, and develop their creative abilities and skills. Nizhniy Novgorod's Intel employees volunteer to teach children how to use modern technologies.
