CHICAGO – Boeing, a global leader in aerospace technology, continues its local philanthropy with a generous gift of $50,000 in scholarships to students and alum of Project SYNCERE as
part of its ongoing commitment to empowering underserved communities and advancing STEM education. This contribution is part of Boeing’s larger annual support of Project SYNCERE, including the E-CADEMY program, and the highly anticipated ENpowered Games. Scholarship winners will be announced on June 3 at Project SYNCERE’s E-CADEMY Closing Ceremony.
This $50,000 gift will provide scholarships to students and alumni of Project SYNCERE’s E-CADEMY program who are pursuing post-secondary degrees in STEM fields. This initiative aims to break down barriers and create opportunities for talented individuals from underserved populations to access higher education in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

By investing in the education and development of these students, Boeing aims to foster a more inclusive and diverse workforce in the STEM industry.
Boeing’s generous support will impact the lives of numerous students and alumni, empowering them to pursue their dreams and achieve their fullest potential. Through these scholarships, Project SYNCERE and Boeing are creating a pathway for individuals from underserved communities to thrive in STEM fields, thereby driving innovation and societal progress.
