Lorraine Melchior Bursary Fund

Established by generous corporate and private donations, the Lorraine Melchior Bursary Fund honours CUPS’ former Executive Director (1994-2003). Under her guidance, CUPS grew from a grassroots community organization into one of the largest service agencies in Calgary. Thousands of Calgarians have likewise grown and learned to thrive with the support of CUPS Health & Education Centres.

CUPS sees education as an essential investment in building lasting solutions to poverty. We are therefore proud to offer Melchior bursaries to selected low-income Calgarians who have committed to active participation in CUPS programming for a minimum period of six months.

Interested participants should contact their CUPS case manager.
