com, 308-539-1883 DENVER, CO — November 21, 2025 —ActivateWork has received a $75,000 grant from Boeing State Advocacy and Global Engagement (SAGE) as part of Boeing’s “Our Heroes” initiative dedicated to supporting military and veteran communities nationwide.

This significant investment will enable ActivateWork to expand its Veterans Initiative , providing transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses with the training, support, and connections needed to launch high-demand careers in the tech industry.

The grant will directly fund tuition-free tech training , individualized career coaching, and direct job placement support services for veterans and military spouses looking to launch meaningful civilian careers in tech.

“This grant enables us to expand our dedicated veteran and military programming, helping those who have served our country—and their families—transition to meaningful civilian careers. ” This partnership signifies a strategic investment in building a diverse and skilled workforce by empowering those who have served.

As an approved partner of the Department of Defense’s SkillBridge program, ActivateWork allows service members to gain valuable civilian job training during their final 180 days of service while still receiving military pay and benefits, removing financial barriers to training and accelerating the transition to meaningful civilian employment.

Additionally, as an approved partner of the Military Spouse Employment Partnership (MSEP), ActivateWork helps military spouses prepare for and secure meaningful employment in tech roles, connecting them to a nationwide network of employers who value their unique strengths and adaptability.

“Boeing SAGE’s ‘Our Heroes’ initiative is focused on improving the quality of life for transitioning servicemembers, veterans, and their families, as well as communities typically underserved in the military-veteran ecosystem,” said Bailey Perkins Wright, Senior Community Investor for Boeing SAGE’s central region.

“Through our partnership with ActivateWork, we’re helping ensure veterans and their families have the support they need to thrive long after military service. ” This grant will enable ActivateWork to scale its veteran and military programs, reach more job seekers from military backgrounds, and deepen employer partnerships focused on hiring veterans and military spouses.
