Do you know a graduating high school student who holds great promise but needs financial support to attend college, university or trade school?
Through the new W. & M. Edelbrock Bursary program, they could receive $3,125 for each year of their studies!
One student from Westside Secondary School, Orangeville District Secondary School, and Centre Dufferin District Secondary School will be selected by school committees to receive the bursary in June.
In addition to being residents of Dufferin County, the students must demonstrate financial need and show either academic success or initiative and aptitude to grow within their chosen area of study.
“The family behind the W. & M. Edelbrock Fund wants students from every walk of life to have the opportunity to gain a post-secondary education,” said Shirley Boxem, Grants Committee Chair.
“This bursary is for students who have a real passion for the area of study they want to pursue, whether that be a skilled trade, a profession or an academic career. We want to help remove the financial barrier.”
Students must complete an application form by June 1st.
The form can be found HERE.
The W. & M. Edelbrock Fund is a donor-advised fund with Dufferin Community Foundation.
