Over the past five years Interior Savings has given out bursaries to more than 2,500 students, 20 from Clearwater alone, and there’s more than 300 bursaries left available for 2019.

Students who wish to apply have until Feb. 28 to submit applications.

The bursary program was created for students between the ages of 17 and 24 who are going into, or returning to, full-time study towards a degree, diploma or trade certification program at a designated post-secondary institution in 2019 or 2020.

Students can only be awarded this bursary once.

“Local money for local good is so much more than our tag line; it’s our commitment to investing in our communities and our members,” said Kathy Conway, CEO of Interior Savings.

Every year Interior Savings returns a portion of profits to its members, and the Million Dollar Bursary program is one of the ways the Credit Union achieves that.

To be eligible for the bursaries, members have until Feb. 28 to finish the online bursary application; for those who aren’t members, student accounts are free to open.

“Our Million Dollar Bursary program is one way we give back to our young members in the hope that we will make a meaningful difference in their lives and help them achieve their full potential,” Conway added.
