About this award

You can receive a $1,000 bursary. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. There are two bursaries available in total. This is for you if you are pursuing a career in Early Childhood Care and Education and can show you have professional promise in this field. You must apply by November 1, 2026. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Holland College lists this award's criteria on its official page (see Who qualifies). Ask Holland College how winners are picked among the students who meet them and how many usually apply, so you can judge your odds. Ask Holland College during your application how the money will reach you — some awards pay students directly, others apply funds to tuition. Confirm this so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Holland College whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be enrolled at Holland College and studying in the field of Early Childhood Care and Education.

Tips for applying

EssayAvoid writing a generic summary of your classes. Instead, focus on your professional promise and how you intend to impact the field of early childhood care. Describe a specific moment that confirmed this is your calling.
SupportAvoid submitting a basic list of goals. Instead, connect your future career ambitions to the specific values of the Charlottetown Y's Men. Explain how your goals align with helping young people.
RealismAvoid assuming this is a guaranteed award since only two bursaries are available. Instead, treat this as one of several funding options and continue searching for other grants to secure your tuition.
