BURSARIES PROGRAM
The Anglican Foundation of Canada administers the bursary program on behalf of the National Office. A number of trust funds, some held by the Anglican Foundation and some by General Synod, contribute to the funds available each year. Two trust funds were established by the Anglican Foundation. "The Anglican General Bursary Trust" is for theological students studying toward ordination who will be attending a theological college in Canada (bursaries are not given for undergraduate study). "The Anglican Graduate Award Trust" is for study toward a graduate degree. Both these Trusts need your support in order that sufficient funding may be available in future years.

The Advisory Committee which gives consideration to bursary applications meets in early May and the deadline for receiving applications at the Foundation Office is April 22nd each year. Applicants are advised of the results in June.

THE CATHOLIC APOSTOLIC CHURCH UNIVERSAL TRUST
(One part of this Trust Fund is administered in conjunction with the bursary program. The second part is to provide funding for aboriginal programs and projects [not buildings], including those in urban settings.)

The Advisory Committee meets twice yearly in May and October. The deadline to receive applications for the May meeting is April 22nd each year and the deadline to receive applications for the October meeting is September 1st each year.

SACRED ARTS TRUST
(For the encouragement and support of the arts [drama, dance, music, etc.] in public worship. At the present time funding is limited but will be increasing each year over a ten year period.)

The Advisory Committee meets in early May and the deadline for receiving applications is April 5th each year.

THE INEZ EVELYN THOMPSON TRUST
