Scholarships

Over the past seven years, the George Brown College Retirees Association GBCRA has awarded  $4,000 in scholarships, making a tangible difference in the lives of our students. With your incredible support, we have successfully raised more than 25,000 for our endowed scholarship fund, a testament to the collective generosity and commitment of our community and this year we hope to top the $30,000 mark.

Each dollar raised not only symbolizes financial assistance but also embodies hope, opportunity, and the promise of a brighter future for our students. Your contributions have the power to shape the educational journeys of aspiring individuals, allowing them to pursue their dreams and achieve their goals. By continuing to support our mission, you are helping to create a ripple effect that extends far beyond the classroom, impacting families and the community at large.

We invite you to remain engaged and involved in this noble cause. Whether through donations or participation in our upcoming fundraising auction or by making a cash donation.  Your involvement is essential in fueling our shared vision of empowerment and success. Together, let's continue to make a difference because when we come together, we can truly transform lives!
