Notably, this marks the first time funding will be awarded in all MetLife regions, including the United States, Asia, Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East. A request for proposals is currently open in the U.S., and funding will be administered by invitation only in other regions

“For nearly 50 years, MetLife Foundation has been focused on promoting the economic progress of individuals and communities to create the opportunity for shared prosperity,” said Tia Hodges, president and CEO of MetLife Foundation and head of corporate giving and employee volunteerism at MetLife. “This can’t be possible until essential needs are met, which is why we continue to grow the support we provide through CIGP.”
