The Minerva Foundation seeks to create opportunities for BC women to realize their economic and leadership potential, particularly single mothers, or recent immigrants, or Indigenous women, or women with a disability.
The Minerva Foundation is committed to supporting bursaries to assist single mothers at B.C. universities with the costs of tuition, childcare and housing. This bursary for BC women seeking to advance their education at Royal Roads University is a result of Minerva Foundation's generosity and partnership with the University. The recipient must be willing to follow up with the Minerva Foundation after receiving the funding.
