Inspire future STEM pioneers with a Millennium Point Trust Grant
Millennium Point has unveiled its latest programme to empower young people in the West Midlands. We are searching for schools, colleges and not-for-profit organisations looking to make their STEM-related dreams a reality. Until 6 December 2024, interested groups can apply for a Millennium Point Trust Grant for their Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics projects.
The Millennium Point Trust Grants Programme is designed to enhance education and inspire the next generation of STEM professionals. With grants ranging from £1,000 to £20,000, the programme aims to support projects that have a substantial impact on STEM education and career choices. Applicants are encouraged to showcase innovative ideas that will spark curiosity, creativity, and passion for STEM fields among young learners.
The Millennium Point Charitable Trust has already awarded £3.7 million to over 160 groups in the region. The funds for these grants are generated through the commercial activities of the Millennium Point building, a landmark located on Curzon Street in Birmingham City Centre. Previously funded projects have included STEM labs, planetariums and even the building of a full-sized light aircraft.
Abbie Vlahakis, CEO of Millennium Point, said: “Our grants programme is more than just financial support; it’s about empowering young people to make a positive change. We want to help the next generation of scientists, engineers, and innovators to help shape our world for the better.”
