Bursaries for 24 Toronto campus graduates
9 June 2021
As part of its 25th annual awards, the Collège Boréal Foundation is proud to announce that 24 bursaries totaling more than $7,300 have been distributed to graduates of our Toronto campus. Thanks to the generosity of many important partners, Collège Boréal presented these awards at an awards ceremony held virtually on Tuesday, June 8.
Since the founding of Collège Boréal in 1997, more than 12 million dollars have been distributed to students from communities across the province and even internationally. Just this year, we are awarding 1065 bursaries for a total of over $850,000.
The mission of the Boréal Foundation and the Development Office is to facilitate access to higher education by providing resources to ensure that every student experiences rich and rewarding post-secondary studies and particularly by:
- Ensuring that no student is denied high quality education due to lack of money;
- Recognizing the academic achievements and personal accomplishments of students through awards of excellence in all sectors;
- Providing the College with appropriate teaching materials;
- Maximizing revenues by inspiring and fostering a culture of philanthropy.
This year, more than ever, our graduates need to celebrate. Despite a challenging year marked by the pandemic, they persevered and obtained their diploma. It is because of our partners that we are able to continue to provide financial support to our students year after year and for that, we are extremely grateful. We owe to our partners the success of this celebration of our students’ achievements!
