Loretta Saunders Community Scholarship

Indigenous women from Mi'kma'ki, Nunatsiavut, or Atlantic Canada who attend a Canadian post-secondary institution may apply. Applicants must have completed the equivalent of one year of post-secondary study within the previous two years. Awards of $500 to $2,000 are based on scholastic achievement, service to Indigenous communities, and financial need. Apply through CFNS's Cognito Forms portal by July 30 each year. The fund honors Inuk scholar and MMIWG advocate Loretta Saunders, established in 2014.
