Give the Gift of Education: Establish a Scholarship or Award at UPEI
Are you looking for a meaningful way to give back and create a lasting impact? Establishing a scholarship or award in your name—or in honour of someone you wish to recognize—is a powerful way to support UPEI students.
Your scholarship or award helps reduce financial barriers, allowing students to focus on their studies and reach their full potential. Recipients of scholarships and awards are deeply grateful for donor support, which plays an important role in shaping their academic success.
There are two established options for creating a scholarship or award:
- Annual scholarship or award: A commitment of $875 per year for five years provides meaningful annual support to a deserving student through a scholarship or award.
- Endowed scholarship or award: A $25,000 gift is invested in perpetuity. Based on the current approved 4% expenditure rate, it generates a $1,000 annual scholarship or award for a student every year, forever.
We would be honoured to work with you to create a scholarship or award that reflects your values and leaves a lasting legacy at UPEI. To learn more or get started, please contact Kathy Weatherbie, Senior Development and Donor Relations Officer, at krweatherbie@upei.ca or (902)-626-6791.
