Yvon Charest Bursaries

Two bursaries of $5,000 for children of iA Financial Group employees

 

We are back with the 5th and final edition of the Yvon Charest Bursaries, in honour of our former president and CEO, who helped build the prominent, forward-looking company that iA Financial Group has become.

 

What dream or project would your child make a reality with $5,000?

Ten submissions will be chosen and presented to all iA Financial Group employees, who will then vote on the ones that inspire them the most.

Two bursaries of $5,000 will be awarded to: one child aged 15 and under and one child aged 16 and older (no age limit).

Thank you for applying. The voting period will start March 21.

Process

  • February 9 to February 28, 2023
