The Legion Foundation BC/Yukon is proud to fund bursaries, scholarships and awards that help students attend post-secondary programs. In 2011, with the closing of Kimberley Legion Branch 67, a scholarship fund was established. Each year, a scholarship of $1000 is awarded to a Kimberley-area student entering their first year of post-secondary studies in the field of health sciences.

This year, the Legion Foundation was excited to present the scholarship to Katie, a local grade 12 student who will be attending university this fall. We wish you the best of luck, Katie!
