Worth knowing

You must have a disability, and a parent, grandparent or foster parent must belong to a NUPGE component union, which in Alberta usually means AUPE. The essay is 750 to 1,000 words on why quality public services matter to the quality of life of people with disabilities, so lived experience is the point, not a disadvantage. Not to be confused with the Terry Fox Humanitarian Award, which is a separate and much larger national program with no union requirement.

About this scholarship

A $2,500 award for students with disabilities entering first year whose parent, grandparent or foster parent belongs to a NUPGE member union, decided on an essay about public services. The institution must be a public university or college in Canada.
