STEM & Technical Skill Fund

The STEM & Technical Skill Fund provides grants to Burlington non-profit or entrepreneurial support organization(s) best placed to support teaching technical skills, STEM education, and workforce development for Burlington youth and workforce, principally those for whom this would create new economic opportunities.  This community support fund is intended to support STEM programs, workforce development, and workforce training for Burlington residents.

Following the timeline outlined below, BTV Ignite will administer this competitive application process and the BTV Ignite Board will make the final funding allocation decisions. More than one award may be given in a particular year. Due to a multi-year grant allocation made in 2022 that commits funds for 2023, the total amount available for 2023 is $35,000. Grant applications may not exceed this amount.

The application process for the STEM & Technical Skill Fund will open on April 3, 2023 and close on July 31, 2023. Decisions will be sent to applicants no later than the end of August 2023.
