For more than 35 years, the Fletcher Foundation has been dedicated to supporting engineering technology and applied science education at colleges across Ontario. Through minimum $40,000 endowments at every Ontario college, the $1,000 annual OACETT Technology Award bursary, and its Enhanced Education Experience Grants, the Foundation helps ensure students and educational institutions have the resources they need to shape the future of the profession.
This past May, the Foundation held a 50/50 raffle, open to both members and non-members, to support engineering technology and applied science students across the province. The winning ticket was drawn at the OACETT President's Awards Gala on May 30.
Congratulations to this year's winner, Dave Bose, C.E.T., a Technology Education Teacher with the Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board!
Thanks to Dave and everyone who participated, the raffle raised more than $5,300, half of which is retained in support of Fletcher Foundation initiatives. Your generosity helps ensure future engineering technology and applied science professionals have opportunities to achieve academic excellence.

The Foundation hosts fundraising initiatives throughout the year, including the current Community Clean up programs with the Chapters, a silent auction, Giving Tuesday campaigns, and more. You can also round up your membership renewal payments to donate to the Foundation. Thank you to those who participated in supporting the next generation of engineering technology and applied science professionals.
