Funding for the Fill Your Tank Program & ROAD Forward Initiative Reaffirms Long-Standing Commitment to Fostering Healthy, Thriving Communities

Today, Enterprise Mobility announced it will expand efforts to address food insecurity and advance social equity by committing more than $200 million through its Fill Your Tank program and ROAD Forward initiative. The grant funding will continue to strengthen communities where Enterprise Mobility operates in North America and Europe by supporting local nonprofit organizations and key partners.

“From our first days in business, we have been deeply committed to fostering healthy, thriving communities in the places where Enterprise Mobility team members live and work,” said Chrissy Taylor, president & chief executive officer at Enterprise Mobility. “This investment builds on that legacy, helping us continue to tackle hunger as well as support education, health and wellness, and career prep for youth and young adults.”

By 2030, the Fill Your Tank program and ROAD Forward initiative will have provided a collective investment of over $375 million in grants from Enterprise Mobility’s operating groups and the Enterprise Mobility Foundation.

Fill Your Tank

Launched in 2016, the Fill Your Tank program was created to address food insecurity and work toward a future without hunger. By 2030, more than $210 million will be granted to key partners, as well as local food banks and food programs in communities throughout Enterprise Mobility’s 70+ operating groups. Since the program’s inception, more than 670 local organizations have received grants through Fill Your Tank, helping alleviate hunger in hundreds of communities.

Key partners include:

• United States: Feeding America®
• Canada: Food Banks Canada
• Europe: The Global FoodBanking Network, which supports nonprofit organizations in Enterprise Mobility’s European operating countries in France, Germany, Ireland, Spain and the U.K.

ROAD Forward

Launched in 2020, the ROAD Forward initiative supports organizations that address social equity gaps in communities where Enterprise Mobility operates. By 2030, nearly $165 million will have been granted to local nonprofits and key partners through ROAD Forward to support early childhood development, youth health and wellness, and career and college preparation. Since its inception, more than 1,000 local organizations have received grants through the ROAD Forward initiative, driving a tangible, positive impact in hundreds of communities.

Key partners include:

• United States: My Brother’s Keeper Alliance, UNCF, Girls Inc., Parents as Teachers and Thurgood Marshall College Fund, a newly added partner.
• Canada: BGC Canada, JA Canada, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada, all of which are new partners.
• Europe: BookTrust (U.K.), The Girls’ Network (U.K.), Children’s Books Ireland (Ireland), McDonald’s Kinderhilfe Stiftung (Germany), Sport dans la Ville (France), Article 1 (France), Fundación MAPFRE (Spain) and Fundación Generali The Human Safety Net España (Spain), all of which are new partners.

Local nonprofits for both Fill Your Tank and ROAD Forward are selected by Enterprise Mobility’s operating groups. This empowers team members to take the lead in identifying the organizations best equipped to address hunger and social equity gaps in their neighborhoods.

“Through Enterprise Mobility’s latest investment, we’re standing behind our core value to strengthen communities across North America and Europe,” said Carolyn Kindle, president of the Enterprise Mobility Foundation. “Seeing the transformative impact of these programs has been inspiring, and we’re thrilled to build on the momentum.”

To date, Enterprise Mobility has donated over a half billion dollars to charitable organizations worldwide through its operating groups and the Enterprise Mobility Foundation. By leveraging our presence in thousands of communities, Enterprise Mobility is responding to natural disasters and helping address challenges, such as hunger and social inequity, through partnerships, local grants, volunteerism and employee giving.

QUOTES – National Partners

“Our partners at Rogers understand that their generous investment in BBBS Teen Mentoring programs today delivers so much value to so many youth long-term. The single most common factor for children who do well is having the support of one stable and committed relationship with an adult. The Rogers Youth Grant means that over 350 mentee-mentor matches will be ignited across 24 local BBBS communities across Canada and inspire the growth of even more local Teen Mentoring programs. Together with Rogers, we are further tackling the problem of childhood adversities in rural, remote and urban communities.”
