BlackRock Launches $100 Million Philanthropic Initiative to Power the Next Generation of American Workers in Skilled Trades<\/b><\/p>\n

As the U.S. faces historic infrastructure demands, BlackRock\u2019s Future Builders initiative will reach 50,000 Americans with training and support to address urgent labor needs and build long-term financial security for workers<\/i><\/p>\n

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nBlackRock today announced a $100 million philanthropic initiative to expand economic opportunity and power the next generation of America\u2019s skilled trades workers. As the U.S. faces historic demand for new and modernized infrastructure, BlackRock\u2019s Future Builders initiative \u2014 a national effort funded by The BlackRock Foundation \u2014 will help address urgent labor needs by connecting workers to skilled trades training, supporting them through completion and licensure, and helping participants build long-term financial security. Empowering millions to save and prepare for retirement is core to BlackRock\u2019s mission, and strong career pathways are fundamental to that goal.<\/p>\n

\nAs the country sees the need for historic investment<\/a> in infrastructure, demand for workers in skilled trades such as electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and ironworkers continues to accelerate. Over the next decade, employment in U.S. infrastructure\u2013related skilled trades is projected to grow by more than 5% \u2014 outpacing the national average of 3% \u2014 representing hundreds of thousands of net new jobs. Matching the pace of demand for these skilled workers is essential to enabling the next phase of economic growth.<\/p>\n

\u201c<\/b>Throughout our history, tradespeople have built our country,\u201d said Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock.<\/b> \u201cAmerica needs an estimated $10 trillion in infrastructure investment by 2033 to modernize aging systems and build new energy, digital, and AI infrastructure. Capital alone is not enough \u2013 people are central to building our nation\u2019s future. By bringing policymakers, corporate leaders and labor champions together, we\u2019re helping ensure this growth delivers shared prosperity and greater economic mobility for more Americans.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nIn the first phase, BlackRock\u2019s Future Builders initiative will deploy $100 million in grant capital to nonprofit and workforce development partners across multiple states over the next five years, reaching 50,000 workers. BlackRock will work alongside federal, state, and local governments, labor organizations, companies, and nonprofits to strengthen effective skilled trades programs and deliver these opportunities at scale. The initiative will take a comprehensive approach \u2014 supporting pre-apprenticeship access, training completion and licensure \u2014 while embedding financial education and digital savings tools to help workers build durable economic security from their first paycheck through retirement. BlackRock will announce additional phases of Future Builders over the next 12 months.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cBuilding the infrastructure to secure America’s continued leadership in AI is creating thousands of high skilled trade jobs. We applaud BlackRock\u2019s Future Builders initiative and their commitment to expand economic opportunity for more Americans,\u201d said Ruth Porat, President and Chief Investment Officer of Alphabet and Google. \u201cGoogle is proud to have pioneered an electrical worker training program that is creating high paying careers across America. Only through collective investment \u2013 each program building and expanding upon the other \u2013 can the public and private sectors ensure all Americans have an opportunity to benefit from AI’s upside.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\u201cBlackRock\u2019s Future Builders initiative reflects a clear understanding that meeting America\u2019s infrastructure demands requires both capital and people. This is at the heart of IBEW and NECA\u2019s jointly administered apprenticeship program, which delivers rigorous, safety-driven, skills-based training that creates pathways into the middle class, strengthens workforce capacity to build and sustain the energy, digital, and AI infrastructure powering economic growth, and expands opportunity while supporting long-term financial security for working families,\u201d said Kenneth Cooper, International President of IBEW and David Long, CEO of NECA.<\/p>\n

\nThe initiative builds on BlackRock\u2019s broader philanthropic efforts to strengthen financial security for more Americans, including its Emergency Savings Initiative<\/a>, which has helped people build a total of $2 billion in new liquid savings since 2019. Since 2020, BlackRock\u2019s philanthropic spend, including through The BlackRock Foundation, has totaled $354 million. Grants have supported over 250,000 people across the U.S., UK, and EU through education and workforce training programs, including recent skilled trades programs in Arkansas<\/a>, Georgia<\/a>, and Tennessee<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\nThe Future Builders initiative will be a key focus today at BlackRock\u2019s U.S. Infrastructure Summit<\/a> in Washington D.C. The event convenes elected officials, corporate executives, labor leaders, asset owners, and infrastructure experts to discuss how the U.S. can accelerate the delivery of new and upgraded infrastructure crucial to the country\u2019s long-term economic growth.<\/p>\n
