DOW | 2021 ESG REPORT | 65 COMMUNITY INVESTING IN OUR PEOPLE AND PLACES WHERE WE LIVE AND WORK MEASURING OUR IMPACT Dow’s measurement approach is grounded in grantees working with True Impact, Dow’s third-party vendor, to report their respective outcomes using standardized logic models and indicators. True Impact uses a claim calculation to determine the portion of those impacts attributed to Dow. The following outcomes, aligned to the global citizenship strategy, represent Dow’s claim. • Achieve Academic Success is a composite outcome of students who either improve their academic performance, succeed in school, improve their productivity and effectiveness, earn a post-secondary degree/credential, successfully graduate high school or access post- secondary education. • Experience Health Improvements is a composite outcome of people who protect or improve their health or people who experience improved well-being. • CO 2 Emissions Avoided represents the total metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) or other greenhouse gas emissions (expressed in CO 2 equivalence, or CO 2 e) avoided. • Economic Empowerment is a composite outcome from people who gain financial strength, or attain, retain or improve employment.
