CANADIAN FEDERATION OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN CHARITABLE TRUST

The Canadian Federation of University Women Charitable Trust awards scholarships and bursaries to women pursuing post-secondary education across Canada, with a strong presence in the Greater Toronto Area. The organization recognizes that women, particularly mature students, Indigenous women, and those from underrepresented backgrounds, often face financial barriers to completing their degrees. By providing direct financial support, the trust helps remove obstacles that prevent qualified women from accessing higher education. The organization also funds research on women's issues and supports local community initiatives in Mississauga and surrounding regions. Since its inception, the trust has distributed millions in educational funding, making it one of the longest-standing sources of financial aid for women in Canada.
