Canadian Scholarships from private and Governmental Organizations
HowToSaveMoney Scholarship
moneyGenius (a WeyMedia Inc. business) proudly announces its 3rd annual scholarship available to Canadian students enrolled in full-time undergraduate or graduate studies.
We're looking for a student dedicated to academic excellence, no matter what field of study they’re enrolled in.
The chosen student will be awarded CA$2,000 which may be used towards the cost of their studies, helping them get a head start on their personal finance journey as young adults.
We get it. With tuition costs rising, textbook prices being as high as ever, all on top of being able to actually support yourself while getting an education, paying for post-secondary education can be a daunting task.
That being said, learning important money lessons and personal finance habits has become crucial to achieving financial independence without sacrificing your way of life.
Founded in 2010, moneyGenius is dedicated to making sure Canadians live the life they want while meeting their financial goals by educating Canadian consumers on how to take control of their finances, find the best deal, and have fun doing it. We want to help students save on the things they love and learn valuable lessons along the way.
We truly believe that students are the future movers and shakers of Canada. Dedicated to their education, they’re working to be the next CEOs, politicians, activists, teachers, nurses, and everything in between.
The Pat McLaughlin Memorial Scholarship

Institute for Advancements in Mental Health Scholarship program
Our scholarship program is Canada’s only bursary program dedicated to funding educational opportunities for people living with psychosis. Our program has been providing funds for educational pursuits since 2003, and to date we’ve supported over 100 students and awarded approximately $250,000.

Kin Canada Bursaries
Throughout his life, Hal Rogers believed in the value of education. In his own words, "providing and promoting the finest and most effective education possible for our young people" was a noble endeavor.
Hal’s commitment and devotion to education is evidenced in his many years as a trustee on the Forest Hill Board of Education. In addition, the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation named Founder Hal the first recipient of the coveted Lamp of Learning Award (pictured right) in 1950. The Lamp is awarded annually to a non-teacher who has made an “outstanding contribution to public secondary education in the Province.”
The HREF is supported by Kinsmen, Kinette and Kin clubs, and public donations.
From the fund, $1,000 bursaries are awarded to successful Canadian applicants who are pursuing post-secondary education at a recognized university, community college, technical institute and other schools for advanced education.

Innovation Education scholarship
At LA Tutors 123, we believe that it’s more than just the grades that make a great well-rounded student. Each one of you is creative in his or her own way: some of you blog; others curate documentary photography on Instagram; still others find imaginative ways to solve problems in their public and private lives. Creativity is the air each one of us breathes, but sometimes we get so concerned with grades that we forget that imagination is our natural problem solver.
One way to showcase your creativity is to innovate either by solving a problem, by designing something that helps others solve problems, or by enhancing our relationship with whatever matters to us. Innovation is what brings our technical skills and our hopes together in unique ways.
It also provides opportunities for gaining real-working experience in a chosen field, and gives students the chance to connect with adults outside their circle who might be able to help students get into their top choice college or get an internship. In the end, innovation makes people look at the bigger picture, which is the best preparation for college and for life.
We at LA Tutors are passionate about sparking the creative genius in students and would love to commend those outstanding students who have a made a difference in the lives of others in some innovative or technological fashion. In order to achieve this, we have established a scholarship for students who meet certain criteria.
