Each year, we're proud to support our high school graduates by providing two $2,500 bursaries to students within our community.
These bursaries are presented to students who plan to attend a technology, university, college or vocational school.
BURSARY REQUIREMENTS
To be eligible for a CDCU bursary, you must:
- Fulfill graduation requirements and be proceeding to a recognized post-secondary institution
- Attend the institution within one year of graduation
Note: The candidate may defer the bursary for one year with written approval.
PREFERENTIAL CRITERIA
Preference may be given to candidates that:
- Demonstrate financial need
- Are CDCU members (where equal candidates are being considered)
- Are family of employees and/or directors of CDCU
BURSARY PROCEDURE
To receive the award, the successful candidate must send a letter to CDCU with proof of registration along with their social insurance number, date of birth, phone number and mailing address. This is done through Kootenay River Secondary School prior to graduation.
Note: One-half of the bursary will be given upon proof of first semester registration, with the balance given on proof of second semester registration.
COMMUNITY SPONSORSHIP
We’re proud to support many local groups and initiatives that demonstrate a direct benefit to the communities we serve.
