USA: Trane Technologies has renewed its grant to the Science Museum of Minnesota to cultivate leadership skills, career readiness, and a profound appreciation for STEM among young people.

In addition to financial support, Trane Technologies employees will have the opportunity to volunteer within the KAYSC by serving as instructors in the STEM Skills Marketplace, providing content advice for STEM projects and engaging in community-based projects like Youth Science Day.
“Our shared commitment to empowering the next generation of STEM leaders and innovators aligns with Trane Technologies’ vision of challenging what’s possible for a sustainable future,” said Amy Volz,Trane Technologies director of strategic partnerships & corporate impact. “By investing in these programmes, together we are helping foster interest and access to the skills needed to drive the innovation of tomorrow.”
