Education is a wise investment

This bursary was established by the Lebanese Chamber as part of our commitment to making a difference in our community through sponsorships with strategic focus on youth and education.

The Lebanese Chamber of Commerce will award one bursary anonymously per year, valued at $2,500. Education is a wise investment and we recognize the cost is difficult for many students and their families. We believe no one should be denied an education because of their financial need.

This bursary is open to any student attending a post-secondary school in Nova Scotia of Lebanese descent.

Applicants will be measured by demonstrating financial need, academic grade and achievements, Lebanese community involvement and volunteering efforts in their broader community. 

We have partnered with Saint Mary’s University, who will give an additional $2,500 to the bursary recipient that is a current or accepted student of Saint Mary’s University.

The 2023 Bursary Program is now closed.  Applications will reopen in May 2024.

Please email us with any questions. One letter of reference are required.

The LCC Bursary Program is open to students who are residents of Nova Scotia and of Lebanese descent.
