Ces quatre dernières années, la Fondation a donné plus de 178 000$ à la communauté francophone et francophile sous forme de bourses d’études postsecondaires, de remises de prix et d’octroi de dons à des donataires reconnus. 

Cette année et pour une cinquième année consécutive, la Fondation donnera une partie de ses investissements sous forme de bourses d’études postsecondaires. 

Ces bourses visent à encourager :

- les étudiant.e.s du premier cycle universitaire (jusqu'à la troisième année) qui poursuivent déjà leurs études dans un programme francophone où au moins 55 % des cours doivent être donnés en français.
