Apply for OFA’s 2023 bursary program

The Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA) is offering five postsecondary bursaries in 2023. Along with offering three bursaries in the amount of $2,000 each to students in an undergraduate program, we are also offering a $2,000 bursary to a person completing an apprenticeship, as well as a $2,000 bursary for a person completing a post-graduate, veterinary, or leadership development program.

Bursary recipients will be selected from applicants who are OFA members, a child of, or employee of an OFA member and are residents of Ontario. Applicants should be able to demonstrate industry related accomplishments, an interest in agriculture and rural issues, and community involvement.

The winners will be announced at OFA’s 2023 Annual General Meeting in November.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity – the deadline to submit an application for the bursary program is August 31, 2023.
