Your union is proud to announce the recipients of the 2015 UFCW Canada Local 1000A Scholarships. Forty-two scholarships, worth $500 each, will be awarded to members and/or their dependents enrolled in post-secondary education based on their scholarship application.
“I was ecstatic when I found out I had won the scholarship,” said Traleena Rouleau, who works at Jack & Faith Bird’s No Frills in Arnprior. “It is not always easy to balance a job and post-secondary education and I appreciate the union's support and recognition of student employees. I will be putting this money towards my second semester costs, specifically my textbooks, as well as my summer courses.”
