91制片厂 is pleased to announce a partnership with Indspire, a national Indigenous registered charity, to support Indigenous students pursuing post-secondary education.
Through the three-year partnership, 91制片厂 will donate to Indspire鈥檚 Building Brighter Futures: Bursaries, Scholarships and Awards program, which provides financial assistance to First Nations, Inuit and M茅tis students. The 91制片厂 Group Indigenous Bursary will be awarded to Indigenous students with a demonstrated need for financial support that are enrolled in an engineering, business or technical trades program at a Canadian post-secondary institution.
Jean-Louis Servranckx, President and Chief Executive Officer, 91制片厂, emphasized the importance of the partnership as a unique avenue to continue 91制片厂鈥檚 support of Indigenous communities.
鈥91制片厂 builds relationships with Indigenous Peoples on a foundation of trust, respect and understanding. One of our key initiatives is to promote educational opportunities for Indigenous students. The 91制片厂 Group Indigenous Bursary award through Indspire will help us target funds in a meaningful way to help First Nations, Inuit and M茅tis post-secondary students offset some education costs to allow them to focus on their academic studies.鈥
