Other TD Scholarships and Bursaries
Due to the high costs of higher learning, many young people need financial aid to continue their studies. To help them reach their full potential, TD donates significant funds for student scholarships and bursaries.
Here are a few examples:
- TD Bank Financial Group Bursaries: Annually, over 500 aspiring students studying in various disciplines receive scholarship funds through this program via their Canadian university or college financial aid offices.
- TD 4-H Agricultural Scholarships: These scholarships, valued at $2,000 each, help make it possible for 10 high-achieving Canadian students to study in the agriculture and agri-business fields. TD has been a supporter of the 4-H Council, a rurally-based boys and girls club, since 1955.
- Harry Jerome Scholarship Fund: Our contribution provides two scholarships a year, valued at $7,000 each, along with summer employment at TD to African-Canadian students who demonstrate academic excellence, community leadership and financial need.
- Foundation for the Advancement of Aboriginal Youth (FAAY) scholarships: Through the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business, TD funds six scholarships of $2,000 each to help develop the next generation of Aboriginal leaders. By encouraging Aboriginal youth to stay in school, FAAY bridges the gap between the reality which kids confront in their communities and the opportunities available to those with higher education.
