Nov. 7, 2017
This year we celebrated our 30th Anniversary at the 2017 Bill 7 Award Presentation which was held on Tuesday, November 7th at 6:00 p.m. at the 519 Community Centre.
The Bill 7 Award Trust scholarship was established 30 years ago in 1987 to recognize the passing of Bill 7 by the Ontario legislature to recognize sexual orientation as protected from discrimination under the Ontario Human Rights Code.
In 2017, thanks to increased support from our generous donors, we were pleased to be able to award 12 scholarships of $2,500 each (an increase of 2 more scholarships than last year!)
We would especially like to thank our corporate sponsors – IBM Canada and EY – who through their generous support enable us to hold the event to recognize the 12 very deserving LGBTQ students who were scholarship recipients.
