Youth in Community Bursary
To celebrate our first 20 years, in 2017 the Board of the Skills Centre allocated $20,000 to a Youth in Community Bursary. Each year for ten years, we offer two $1,000 bursaries: one each for a youth graduating from JL Crowe Secondary School and from the Kootenay Columbia Learning Centre in Trail, BC. The bursaries are for youth whose family is living at or below the living wage threshold (household income of less than $82,000). Recipients have up to two years to use the bursary, so even if you’re not planning to go to school right away, consider applying for this bursary.
Applications open February 1st each year with recipients announced before graduation in June. This year’s application deadline is May 26.
This bursary is currently Closed. Please browse the rest of the Skills Centre website for other bursary opportunities.
