CHFT recognizes that the strength of its membership is in the many cultures and identities represented within its co-ops. CHFT encourages applications from these diverse communities.
Our Goal
The purpose of the CHFT Diversity Scholarship is to recognize people living in co-ops who are actively promoting diversity through work within their community. We want to help them with their post-secondary education by providing them with award money, credit counseling and employment services.
The Scholarships
This year scholarships are available in 4 different categories. You could be eligible for scholarships in any of these different categories.
We will award scholarships to students graduating from high school and entering college or university. We also offer scholarships for students who are currently enrolled in college or university or are returning to college or university after a break.
We will award the Dexter Johnston Scholarship. This scholarship recognizes a young person who has shown exceptional leadership in their school and community.
We will award the Randy Padmore Scholarship. This scholarship recognizes an individual who takes an active role in mentoring young people.
We will award the Success Becomes You Scholarship. This scholarship recognizes people who are determined to succeed at the post-secondary level or in a skilled trade and who did not have the opportunity to finish their schooling due to family, financial or other circumstances.
