Expanding access to quality education is a top priority and core principle for UFCW Canada.
With universal access to education yet to be achieved in Canada, and the cost of post-secondary tuition continuing to rise, the United Food and Commercial Workers are committed to fighting for education justice and, at the same time, assisting members with tuition relief through a number of scholarship opportunities.
Every year, more than 25 scholarships, bursaries, awards and grants – totalling more than $300,000 – are available to UFCW Canada members and families.
These scholarships, and how to apply for them can be found here: http://www.ufcw649.ca/index.php/resources/scholarships
