Foundry has partnered with Coast Capital to support their 2024/2025 Education Bursaries
These bursaries recognize individuals who have stayed committed to their education, even through adversity. Whether it’s financial difficulties, family issues, personal loss, lack of supports, or health challenges, the Coast Capital Education Bursaries can support youth in building a better future. These awards and bursaries are available to youth participating in the Foundry Work & Education Program and are intended to help youth pursue and achieve their education goals. They may be put towards tuition, enrolment fees, or used to help overcome other challenges to pursuing education goals.
