Union Pacific Railroad has awarded over $5.2 million in competitive local grants through its Community Ties Giving Program, the Class I announced yesterday.

Grants between $5,000 and $30,000 were given to 487 nonprofits within the Class I’s 23-state network for projects aligned with UP’s giving priorities: safety, workforce development, community vitality and environmental sustainability, according to a UP press release.

“Union Pacific believes in the power of local, grassroots organizations to create positive and meaningful change in communities,” said UP President Beth Whited. “We are proud to support these nonprofits, which share our commitment to building safe and vibrant communities for today’s families and for the generations to come.”

A complete list of this year's recipients can be found on UP’s Community Ties webpage.
