4-H Scholarship Opportunity

4-H Canada is announcing a new program to provide $150,000 in scholarships towards first-generation post-secondary students.

It's a grant from The Coca-Cola Foundation.

The scholarship program will focus on supporting students interested in making a positive impact in communities across Canada through skills and knowledge gained in their continued education.

The launch of the First-Generation Scholarship will support this legacy, providing 150 young people with $1,000 towards their postsecondary education.

Any 4-H member who is the first in their immediate family attending a postsecondary institution or a post-graduate program is eligible to apply.

This new partnership with The Coca-Cola Foundation supports 4-H Canada’s work to help youth explore their career interests, develop new skill sets, prepare for the workforce and become leaders in a wide range of sectors.
