We are inspired to positively impact the world and our community.
We created the Piedmont Lithium Foundation – Power for Life, Inc. to help us make a difference in Gaston County – and wherever we plan to operate – to focus on supporting local educational, community, and charitable initiatives.
STEM Education
As a science-based organization, we are committed to supporting the core pillars of a successful education: science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). We expect to award scholarships and grants to help further these learnings in our community.
