Big one to celebrate this year! Be Pro Be Proud is turning 10! For a whole decade, using hands-on simulators and Meta Quest headsets to bring technical careers to life, they've been showing students that a career in the skilled trades is something to be proud of, and we couldn't agree more. To mark the milestone, we're teaming with BPBP for ten special events across our data center communities – including September's launch of Be Pro Be Proud Texas!

One of those moments came at the Be Pro Be Proud National Conference, where we were honored to be part of a conversation about how training, technology, and real career exposure come together to open doors for people in the communities we live and work in. We were happy to speak to a full house of 100+ workforce development and education leaders, employers, and policy makers from 15+ states! 🔧⚡🏗️

Texas is one of the first states chosen for America's Workforce Academy — a free training program for skilled trades with a path to a job offer at a Meta data center construction site. No experience needed. And every graduate will be guaranteed a job on a Meta partner’s construction site. It's a $115 million first year investment in the workers building AI infrastructure.

Meta has invested $20 billion across the Lone Star State, supporting thousands of jobs from Tarrant County to Central Texas and El Paso. America's Workforce Academy is the next way we're showing up for Texas.

Big news in clean energy ☀️🔋

Last week, Meta announced two partnerships pushing the boundaries of what's possible for powering AI infrastructure.

We're working with Overview Energy to bring solar power from space to Earth—satellites collecting sunlight around the clock and beaming it to solar farms on the ground. And we're partnering with Noon Energy on ultra-long-duration storage that can hold clean energy for days, not just hours.

These are the kinds of investments that help strengthen the grid and support reliable power for our data center operations here and across the country.

🌎🧊 April is Earth month — and we're proud to share a closer look at the water restoration work happening in Los Lunas.

Water is a shared and vital resource — and at Meta, our goal is to become water positive in 2030. That means restoring more water than we consume in our operations, while partnering with local communities to boost supply, enhance quality, and protect ecosystems.

In this video, our Water Program leads share what drives this work — and how projects near the Rio Grande are helping move toward that goal.
