Organizations seeking funding must complete an initial screening application to determine eligibility before proceeding with the full application process.
MCC Manitoba Scholarship Fund
MCC Manitoba wants to support students who care about relief, development and peace. Each year, the organization awards scholarships to students who are working toward post-secondary degrees that align with MCC's areas of focus including development, peace, climate change mitigation/adaptation, restorative justice or reconciliation. The scholarship is designed to recognize and support students who demonstrate a history of commitment to service, volunteerism and engagement within their community. Three scholarships valued at $1,000 each are awarded annually to eligible students attending Manitoba-based post-secondary institutions. Students must be enrolled in full-time studies (minimum 18 credit hours per academic year) and demonstrate how their education and career objectives connect to one or more of MCC's focus areas.
Canadian Japanese Mennonite Scholarship
The Canadian Japanese Mennonite Scholarship provides $3,000 CAD to support graduate students engaged in research that assists the protection of minority or human rights in Canada. The scholarship was created as a tangible symbol of cooperation between Canadian Japanese and Canadian Mennonites following a formal apology offered to Canadian Japanese by MCC Canada on behalf of Canadian Mennonites. The scholarship is intended to assist the protection of minority and human rights in Canada and to reduce the potential for abuse of cultural minorities such as that suffered by Japanese Canadians during World War II. Applications are open to Canadian citizens, permanent residents, or international students studying at a Canadian university who are enrolled in a graduate degree program.
