The awards are provided both directly through the BOLT Charitable Foundation and through our post-secondary and community partners. To date, BOLT has awarded more than 430 scholarships totaling $1.4 million.

We work with our industry partners to identify labour shortages in the skilled trades and other professions to ensure that programs related to those careers can be effectively supported. Once BOLT Financial Award recipients have completed their studies, every effort is made to help connect graduates to employment within the construction industry
