About This Opportunity

This scholarship was established at UPEI by the Evelyn Cudmore Scholarship Committee, in memory of Evelyn Cudmore, O.C., LLD (Hon.) for her strong leadership and commitment to Red Cross and water safety training. It was originated upon her retirement from the Red Cross. The scholarship is awarded to a full-time UPEI student enrolled in Department of Applied Human Sciences, based on demonstrated volunteer leadership and experience in the following areas: Red Cross or other water safety programs as an instructor, supervisor, or in a similar capacity; experience as a youth camp counsellor, leader, or swim instructor; or other notable volunteer activity in outdoor education. Students on scholarships/bursaries of less than full tuition are eligible. As the founder of the Red Cross water safety service, small craft safety and first aid in PEI, and an organizer of the Life Saving Society of PEI, Mrs. Cudmore was responsible for literally thousands of Islanders learning to swim, and was instrumental in the founding of the National Lifeguard Service.
