ITT Inc. contributed $100,000 to the CARE Ukrainian Humanitarian Response Fund, which aims to provide life-saving assistance to four million people who have been impacted by the conflict. The situation in Ukraine is a humanitarian catastrophe. CARE provides emergency aid through local partner organizations like Polish Humanitarian Action and SERA, helping them provide emergency aid to Ukrainians escaping to Poland, Romania and Moldova.
“The current events in Ukraine are a crime and a tragedy. We all are or will be touched directly or indirectly. We, at ITT, are grateful for the opportunity to work with CARE and provide much-needed assistance to Ukrainian citizens and others hurt during this crisis”" said Luca Savi, CEO and president of ITT. “At ITT, we are a global company, against violence and believing that every culture should be treated with integrity and dignity. In difficult times like these, I appreciate the concern ITTers show to the people and communities around the globe.”
In addition to its $100,000 company donation, ITT has launched a special 1:1 employee matching gift program where it will match the total contributions ITT employees make to CARE in 2022 up to $50,000.

Solenoid Valves: Direct Acting vs. Pilot-Operated
While presenting in a recent VMA Valve Basics 101 Course in Houston, I found myself in a familiar role: explaining solenoid valves (SOVs) to attendees. (I work with solenoids so much that one VMA member at that conference joked that I needed to be wearing an I Heart Solenoids t-shirt). During the hands-on “petting zoo” portion of the program, which involves smaller groups of attendees, one of the most frequently asked questions I get from people came up: What’s the difference between direct-acting and pilot-operated SOVs, and how do we make a choice?
