The annual award, valued at a minimum of $2,000, will recognize the efforts of a Saint John area UNBSJ student with advanced standing, pursuing studies in English – a particular interest of the donors. Applications for the bursary are directed to UNBSJ. Earnings from the permanently endowed fund may be directed to a Saint John area charitable organization.
