The Investors Group Scholarships for Not-For-Profit Leaders

Through the generosity of Investors Group, The Banff Centre is pleased to offer substantial scholarship assistance for participants from registered charities in Manitoba who wish to attend our Leadership Development programs. Six scholarships of $4,200 each will be awarded annually to help defray the cost of program tuition, meals, and accommodation.

The funding is available for programs starting on or after September 1, 2010, and completed on or before June 30, 2011.

Deadline for applications is May 14, 2010. Successful recipients will be notified by early June.

To be eligible for this funding you must meet the following criteria:

You must be an employee of a registered Canadian charity under the Income Tax Act (Canada), and your organization must be located in Manitoba. (Please note – Priority will be given to organizations in the city of Winnipeg.)

Funding Partnerships:

Funding partnerships make a difference. Such support provides valuable assistance to participants who would otherwise be unable to afford to participate in Leadership Development programs. Such support also enriches the communities in which these participants work, and live.

The Banff Centre is open to new ideas for partnerships: from scholarships to programs, from equipment purchase to facility upgrades.

Please contact us to talk about the giving options that might suit you or your organization best.
