SYRACUSE — The Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF) at Syracuse University announced it has received an inaugural $20,000 grant from the Motorola Solutions Foundation, the charitable arm of Motorola Solutions, Inc.
IVMF will use the grant to support its STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) curriculum in its national career-skills training program, called Onward to Opportunity-Veterans Career Transition Program (O2O-VCTP), according to a news release the institute issued.
Offered at 10 military installations around the U.S. and also online, O2O-VCTP provides civilian career training, professional certifications, and job-placement support to the nearly 200,000 annually transitioning service members, members of the Reserves or National Guard, veterans, and military spouses.
The Motorola Solutions Foundation awards grants each year to organizations that support and advance public-safety programs and technology & engineering education initiatives. This year, programs that served underrepresented populations, including females, people with disabilities, and veterans were prioritized, the release stated.
“Support of our work through philanthropy and leading Foundations such as Motorola is critical to delivering career training to the nearly 200,000 service members that transition out of the service each year as well as their families,” Mike Haynie, vice chancellor and executive director of the IVMF, said. “The IVMF looks forward to expanding our STEM curriculum offerings across the U.S. with this grant to assist our service members and veterans in their pursuit of employment in high-demand careers within that category such as IT, cyber security, programming and more.”
This year, Motorola Solutions Foundation grants (motorolasolutions.com/foundation) will support programs that seek to help more than 2 million students, teachers, first responders, and community members across the U.S., per the release.
Each participant will receive an average of 186 programming hours from its partner nonprofit organizations and institutions. Programs will support special populations including: females, underrepresented minorities, the LGBT community, people with disabilities, and veterans.
