Habitat for Aviation team “Stickers” Tech Jam

Tech Jam, an annual career and tech expo, was once again a fantastic opportunity for Habitat for Aviation to connect with local businesses, organizations, future innovators — and give out STICKERS. It was fantastic to see our friends from Green Mountain Power, who have been gracious supporters of our mission, continuing to back our efforts to bring young women into the world of aviation. Their ongoing support plays a significant role in making our initiatives possible, and we are always grateful for their commitment to our cause.

At the event, we were excited to see Miranda, one of our Rosies, along with her classmates from the South Burlington Robotics Team. It was great to watch them engage with all the incredible technology and innovation on display, as they continue to pave the way for the next generation of tech leaders.

And, of course, we couldn't miss our friends from BETA Technologies, whose engineers, like Women Build Planes team member Rayan El-Kotob, are invaluable to Habitat for Aviation. These skilled professionals generously donate their time each Sunday, guiding, supporting, and educating our team while helping us build our airplane. Their mentorship and expertise have been crucial in shaping our apprenticeship program and providing hands-on learning experiences for the women involved. We also met some interesting folks from Collins Aerospace and we are excited to expand our connection. Tech Jam was a perfect reminder of the power of community collaboration and how these partnerships help us make a real impact.
