PARTNERSHIP GUIDELINES & BENEFITS

Your Partnership at Work

As an IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Blue Collar Institute depends on the generosity of individuals, families, and businesses. Monthly contributions help sustain no-tuition skilled trades education, student housing, meals, transportation, safety equipment, curriculum, mentorship, and campus operations. Every partnership helps create opportunities for students and strengthens our communities.

Partner Appreciation & Recognition

We believe generosity deserves gratitude. After three consecutive successful monthly contributions, qualifying partners become eligible for BCI appreciation merchandise based on their partnership level. Gifts may include branded apparel, welcome packages, and other BCI items. Partners can also receive campus updates, event invitations, and opportunities to participate in the BCI community.

Community Projects & Training Opportunities

BCI partners may submit requests for eligible community improvement projects, educational demonstrations, or supervised student training opportunities. Projects are evaluated based on educational value, instructor availability, safety, licensing requirements, funding, and alignment with BCI's charitable mission. Partnership contributions do not guarantee services, scheduling priority, or project acceptance.
