Fall 2024 Scholarship Award Winners Announced

October 16, 2024

The Society is proud to once again support the educational pursuits of our Members’ and Pensioners’ children and grandchildren as they attend a post-secondary institution of higher learning. A good education is the cornerstone of helping the next generation reach their full potential so that they can both secure good jobs and help to improve our society as a whole.

This year the Society, in conjunction with the Pensioners’ Chapter, awarded 32 scholarships to assist with the costs of pursuing post-secondary education. The Society awarded 10  scholarships worth $1,500 and 22 for $1,000. One of the Pensioners' Chapter scholarships was $1,500 while the other was $1,000.

Winners were scored based on their current volunteer work, a personal statement describing the applicant's interest in impacting their community or broader society, as well as a short essay on one of four topics related to the labour movement and role of unions. Qualified applicants were assessed by a committee after identifying information removed to ensure objectivity.
