Connect Up: Our Social Impact Commitment

The moment a young person decides to become an engineer. The moment a military veteran makes the switch to a civilian career. The moment communities come together to better meet the needs of their people. RTX supports those moments through Connect Up – our $500 million social responsibility initiative to drive transformative, generational impact.

Lifelong learning

We believe that safeguarding the future of aerospace and defense begins with nurturing the endless curiosity that leads to lifelong learning. By partnering with leading organizations that cultivate STEM skills, we are connecting with students to expand the scope of what’s possible and building a career-ready talent pipeline for the workforce of the future.

Honoring service

We connect with and support the men and women who keep us safe every day by investing in programs that help veterans identify career opportunities as they transition to the civilian workforce, keep military families connected, and inspire their children through STEM education to become the innovators of the future.
