Who can apply

Student grants and bursaries are available for students who participate in our activities as participants, volunteers or employees and undergo our program of mentoring which is given to all participants, volunteers and employees. We believe that our youth shouldn't have difficulty paying for education-related equipment or their tuition fees. We are aware of the stress and pressure that a lack of funds can do in a student's life.

How to apply

To initiate the process to apply, email info@ottawayouth.org. With the help of the program director, the board of directors will evaluate each application and communicate with the applicant. The process includes an essay and interviews. ​

• books;
• clothes  (e.g., a uniform, safety boots, etc.);
• electronics (e.g., a computer, a tablet, etc.);
• many more.

Post-secondary studies bursaries

• to pay tuition fees, or
