“Thank you again for the opportunity to receive the Canada Company $2,000 award. This award is very meaningful to me because it will help support me as I continue my education and work toward my long-term goal of becoming a Logistics Officer in the Canadian Armed Forces. I am currently pursuing an accounting degree, which I believe will provide me with valuable knowledge and skills for my future career in military logistics. I plan to put the award directly toward my tuition and other school expenses, helping me continue my studies and bringing me one step closer to achieving my goals. I am very grateful for the support and for the experience I gained through the Black Bear program this summer.”

2026“Receiving the Canada Company $2,000 award was very important to me because it gives me additional support as I prepare for my future after high school. I am currently in Grade 12 and working toward a career in municipal firefighting, so I plan to put the award toward expenses related to my education, certifications, training, and other costs that will help me pursue that career. I am very grateful for the opportunity and for the support that Canada Company has provided to Black Bear graduates. Regards.”

2026“The scholarship took away the burden of paying current rent prices for at least a month. Which then gave me the opportunity to invest that money back into Canadian companies for a better future for myself and Canada as a whole. I greatly appreciate that chance which was given to me. Thank you.”

Grâce à la bourse, j’ai pu acheter quelques livres qui me manquait et de payer une partie de mes frais de scolarités à l’université. Cela m’aide énormément au fait de faire ce qui me plaît ; d’être encore plus proche de mon but d’obtenir mon bac et de devenir un officier infirmier. Merci. »
