Cisco

As the founding sponsor of DOT’s TeachUp! program in the USA and China, the Cisco Foundation has proven its understanding that good ideas aren’t enough to make things happen. Achieving innovation takes leadership, investment and the passion to see it all through. Cisco has partnered with DOT in the Middle East and Africa. In 2006 DOT and the Cisco  21st Century Schools (21S) Initiative provided a leading commitment to the efforts of schools in the Gulf Coast (Mississippi and Louisiana) of the United States to recover from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.
 
In response to another natural disaster, the May 2008 earthquake in Sichuan province, China, Cisco committed $45 million to its China Relief, Rebuild and Development Program. An integral part is introducing TeachUp! and the 21S initiative to selected Sichuan schools.
