Over the past three years manufacturers in Western New York have provided $1.1 million dollars in in-kind support to Dream It Do It Western New York. Through volunteer hours, opening up manufacturing facilities to tours and camps, material contributions, material preparation support and engaging with students at various events manufacturers are energizing their future manufacturing talent.

A combination of in-kind support and financial support have been critical to growing and expanding the Dream It Do It initiative in Western New York. The success of Dream It Do It Western New York has been a product of engaged students, supportive teachers and parents and a dedicated team that keeps it all moving. All the programming that is delivered through DIDIWNY is built on partnership and the financial support of private, philanthropic and public resources. We want to take a moment to say thank you to our funders!
