Worth knowing
Open to students in any year of study, including first year, so a graduating Grade 12 student heading to a Canadian college or university in the fall can apply. You must live in Canada and be attending a Canadian institution. Two requirements make this different from a standard bursary. You need a letter from your oncologist or current physician confirming that you were treated, or are being treated, for a cancer diagnosis. And you need a demonstrated, ongoing volunteer commitment to causes you care about, which the Foundation weighs rather than treating as a nice-to-have. The written piece is a 300 to 500 word letter on your experience, your goals and why you are applying. A letter of acceptance is requested from finalists only, not up front. Everything goes in as a single PDF by email with the subject line the Foundation specifies. The 2026-27 round closed June 3, 2026.
About this scholarship
