COSTI ANNOUNCES NEW ESV ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIP FUND FOR AFGHAN YOUTH - APPLY TODAY!

ESV SCHOLARHIP FUND FOR AFGHAN YOUTH

COSTI is excited to announce The ESV Scholarship Fund for Afghan Youth!

The ESV Scholarship Fund for Afghan Youth is designed to recognize high academic achievement and financial need of an Afghan newcomer who is a current or former COSTI client, under the age of thirty and enrolled in an accredited post-secondary institution.

Applications are evaluated by the Scholarship Awards Committee. Three scholarships, up to a maximum of $3,000 are available for 2022/23.

The scholarhip founders chose to support furthering the education of Afghan Youth to ensure the recipients have a solid foundation in Canada for their future. This education fund is near and dear to their hearts as Erika Veh’s father is an immigrant from Germany whose family fled to Canada just after WWII. Erika and her family hope this scholarship benefits the desire for higher education and helps secure a bright future for the recipients.

We invite undergraduate and graduate students to participate.
