Just before the holidays, VTLFF collaborator Burlington City & Lake Semester was named a 2020 Outstanding Flagship Project by the Global RCE Centre, a division of United Nations University. The award was presented to the Greater Burlington Regional Center of Expertise (RCE) in Education for Sustainable Development, which includes BCL partners at Shelburne Farms, the University of Vermont, and the City of Burlington.
Also in late 2020, the Vermont Student Anti-Racism Network Received a SPARK grant from the Vermont Community Foundation "to foster actively anti-racist school systems across Vermont." VTLFF is proud to be a partner and fiscal sponsor for this project. Several other important projects supported by Network partners also received SPARK funding, including the Winooski Students for Anti-Racism.
Congratulations!
