The MS
Society of Canada is pleased to announce a new scholarship program available
for youth affected by multiple sclerosis in Canada. Given that you may
have students within your school board/district affected by MS, we are sharing
the information and the attached posters in the hopes you will be able to help
spread the word about this exciting and highly lucrative scholarship. If you
could pass this email to the person responsible for communication to
principals, guidance counsellors, etc. that would be greatly appreciated.
The
John Helou Scholarship will award up to two Canadian youth
with the financial support they need to overcome the financial obstacles that
come with a personal or familial diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, enabling them
to reach their full potential and become the next generation of MS leaders. The
recipients must be enrolled in a science, technology, engineering or math
undergraduate program. Recipients of the John Helou Scholarship will
receive $6,250/year for four years to apply to tuition– for a total scholarship
of $25,000.
Applications
are being accepted for this scholarship between now and March 31, 2016 at https://juno.aucc.ca/app/mssociety.html.
Please see the attached posters for additional information including
eligibility criteria. The information can also be found on our website: www.mssociety.ca/scholarships.
The John
Helou Scholarship is available solely due to the generous financial support of Pfizer and Innovative Medicines
Canada.
