About this scholarship
Edmonton Community Foundation funds students from the greater Edmonton area or northern Alberta, meaning north of Red Deer, who need help with post-secondary costs and hold a role with real responsibility in their community. That role counts broadly: volunteering, coaching, or working as an artist. The money can be used at most post-secondary institutions in Canada.
