Worth knowing
This is separate from the branch's University of Calgary scholarship, which is a different award with its own route. The branch publishes a 2026 bursary application with eligibility criteria and a financial means test, so confirm the next application round with the branch. Legion poppy bursaries are normally open at any stage of a college or university programme, not just to graduating students. Applicants must be veterans or the spouses, children, grandchildren or great-grandchildren of veterans and provide proof of service. Applicants must complete the financial means test in the application form. Applicants must live in Airdrie or the surrounding area.
About this scholarship
Royal Canadian Legion Branch 288 distributes bursaries to local students out of the money raised in its annual Poppy Campaign. The branch handed out roughly $30,000 in a single year, spread across a group of recipients, not concentrated in one award.
