TD Scholarships for Community Leadership

The TD Scholarships for Community Leadership recognize and support outstanding students in their final year of high school (outside Quebec) or CEGEP (in Quebec) who have demonstrated an exceptional commitment to community leadership. Since 1995, TD has awarded millions in scholarships to young community leaders across Canada. Recipients receive up to $70,000 over four years ($10,000 annually for tuition and $7,500 annually for living expenses) to support their post-secondary education at a Canadian college or university. In addition to financial support, scholars receive opportunities for paid summer employment, peer networking, and mentorship. The program awards up to 20 scholarships annually to students from five regions across Canada: Atlantic Canada, Quebec, Ontario, Prairies/Northwest Territories/Nunavut, and British Columbia/Yukon. The scholarship emphasizes community impact over academic marks, requiring only a minimum average of 75% (outside Quebec) or an R score of 26 (in Quebec). TD evaluates applicants based on their demonstrated leadership in addressing social or community problems, such as environmental activism, social justice initiatives, mental health advocacy, or supporting marginalized communities.
