CFAX Santas 2023 Scholarship Application

One of the most important factors that will determine whether your application is successful is the extent of your community involvement.

CFAX Santas Anonymous Society volunteers give thousands of hours annually at Christmas, as well as planning and participating in a variety of events in support of our community throughout the year.

The time given by an individual is priceless. Without the dedication of people like yourself, there would be a loss to the community, and this bursary is our way of recognizing and rewarding those that live in Greater Victoria for their commitment.

Any post-secondary institute is eligible as long as the Provincial Government recognizes it as such. Questions: Please contact Christine Hewitt at info@cfaxsantas.com

The maximum amount paid on behalf of any one person is $1,500.00. In order for your application to be considered, you must be a resident of Greater Victoria and you must be 17 years of age in the 2023 calendar year.
