Ethos Black Futures Fund

Ethọ́s Black Futures Fund was established by Vancity Community Foundation, with Ethọ́s Lab Educational Society, to support innovative education opportunities for youth.

About Ethọ́s Lab Educational Society

Ethọ́s Lab Society is a community-centered innovation academy for youth in grades 5 to 12 in Vancouver, BC. Ethọ́s Lab Society is ‘for everyone by us’, meaning they are a Black-led organization with programming open to all youth. The society intentionally fuses Black culture into science, technology, engineering, applied arts, and math (S.T.E.A.M) programming to encourage inclusion, acceptance, and representation. Youth involved with Ethọ́s Lab are empowered with core skills and self-belief to pursue post-secondary education and career paths that are innovative and emerge as leaders in our societies.

About the Ethọ́s Black Futures Fund

The aim of the Ethọ́s Black Futures Fund is to ensure that inclusive S.T.E.A.M. programming is available for youth to explore emerging technologies, build their skills, and find their community. Please consider a one-time or monthly donation to the Ethọ́s Black Futures Fund. Monthly contributions will ensure that youth have access to innovative and inclusive S.T.E.A.M programming, now and into the future.
