Bursary Program

It is important to Shallaway Youth Choir that our program is accessible to as many children and youth as possible. Therefore, we are thrilled to offer a bursary program to our choristers. When considering applications for bursary support, in accordance with standard Canadian practices, we will use Statistics Canada’s low-income cut-offs (LICOs) as a benchmark for identifying families that may benefit from financial assistance.

*An exception process will be established to ensure that youth are not denied the Shallaway experience should unique circumstances exist.

Please email executivedirector@shallaway.ca for further information.

Please note:

  • Applications will be considered on an ongoing basis while funds are available.

  • Choristers must be admitted based on Shallaway Youth Choir’s standard admissions criteria before being considered for bursary funding.

  • Choristers must actively participate in Shallaway Youth Choir’s fundraising programs to qualify for bursary funding.

  • Shallaway Youth Choir reserves the right to request documentation supporting the information disclosed on the Bursary Application form.

  • Funding provided is relative to the term for this application only and does not guarantee future funding. Where need continues, annual re-applications are necessary.
