Every day, we put our dedication to diversity and multiculturalism into practice in a global workforce of nearly 85,000 employees in more than 45 nations.

Leadership and challenges
Intel has achieved a leadership position in a number of key areas, including recognition as a workplace of choice for Asian Americans; support and funding for employee affinity groups; policies in support of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender employees; and multicultural and global training programs. We also recognize that we have more work to do in specific areas of race and gender to make Intel a leader in the areas of employee hiring, retention, development and promotion.

In 2004, Intel's Diversity team developed a multifaceted retention and training strategy to create sustained leadership throughout Intel. A new network of diversity teams around the company helped us expand programs such as mentoring, leadership forums focused specifically on women and under-represented minorities, manager training, employee reintegration and other flexibility programs. Our 2004 Diversity Report, downloaded by nearly 20,000 employees by year end, clearly communicated Intel's diversity policies and vision. We also delivered an innovative new training program to nearly 3,000 employees at eight sites, with a 98% satisfaction level. That program is being expanded at our sites worldwide in 2005.

Community outreach
In 2004, the Intel Computer Clubhouse Network, dedicated to meeting the needs of underserved youth and their communities, continued to grow. The largest global program of its kind, the Network received extensive recognition from community leaders and the media.

During 2004, Intel opened 13 new Computer Clubhouses around the world. We were honored to host dignitaries such as Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah at the opening of the Jordan Clubhouse; Marc Morial, President of the National Urban League, and Janet Napolitano, Governor of Arizona, at the opening of the Tucson, Arizona Clubhouse; and Yankees pitcher Mariano Rivera at the opening of two Clubhouses in Panama. In addition to new openings, Intel sponsored attendance for 20 college-bound Clubhouse youth at the 11th Annual Spring Black College Tour.

Our Clubhouse to College vision became a reality in 2004 as the first group of Clubhouse youth started college programs at Duke University, Arizona State University and Spelman College. By year end, the Intel Computer Clubhouse Network had grown to some 95 facilities in 20 countries.

In 2005, we will exceed our original commitment to build 100 Clubhouses and will concentrate further on ensuring the long-term capability of the Network to provide young people in underserved communities with the skills and self-confidence they need to be successful in the future. Internally, we will focus on implementing breakthrough retention and training initiatives for women and under-represented minorities.

In 2004, we strengthened our commitment to Historically Black Colleges and Universities by working with the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) to donate and install wireless technology at Tuskegee University, Morehouse College, Spelman College, and North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. We also set up a $250,000 Intel/UNCF Scholarship program, donated Intel networking equipment, and created a U.S.-wide UNCF Awareness Campaign under the auspices of Intel Corporate Diversity and our African American Employee Group.

Focusing on our supplier base
In 2004, Intel implemented several new programs aimed at developing under-represented businesses that are interested in working with Intel. Intel also launched the She-Business initiative, a combination of training, consulting, development and support services aimed at helping women entrepreneurs understand the e-business environment and develop their own e-commerce online presence. The program uses technology to support the development of viable, sustainable and scalable woman-owned businesses by providing tailored consulting, business insight and concrete business-specific support.

 
Intel Computer Clubhouse Opens in Jordan

Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah inaugurated Jordan's first Intel Computer Clubhouse in November 2004. The Clubhouse was established in collaboration with the International Youth Foundation (IYF) and the Jordanian Hashemite Fund for Human Development. Located at the Queen Zein Al Sharaf Institute for Development in Hashmi Al Shamali, the Clubhouse serves young people aged 10-18, providing them with access to high-tech equipment, professional software and volunteer mentors to help them develop the self-confidence and enthusiasm for learning that they will need in order to be successful in the future.

The Clubhouse staff expects to welcome as many as 60 youth a day, who can experiment with technology as a tool for learning and creative expression, and develop creative technology skills such as graphic design, music production, and audiovisual artwork and editing.

"Thanks to the dynamic and proactive combination of the International Youth Foundation and Intel, we now have a state-of-the-art Computer Clubhouse for Jordan's youth," said Queen Rania. "Enabling and encouraging our young to access the vast opportunities in the world of information technology is one of the greatest gifts we can give them." The Queen, who serves on the IYF Board, toured the Clubhouse and discussed with students the opportunities it provides and the skills they can learn using the state-of-the-art equipment.
