WEDO Canada National Scholarship Program

WEDO Canada believes that to truly achieve our full economic potential, we need women to reach theirs. Focused and supportive education resources for existing and aspiring women entrepreneurs will put us on the right path to achieve this. As part of our mission, WEDO Canada will grant national scholarships to support a new generation of female entrepreneurs. Our goal is to educate, empower and support Future Women Entrepreneurs by granting one million dollars in scholarships to deserving female post-secondary students across Canada. The scholarship program provides $2,500 awards to women who have completed at least one year of higher education in Entrepreneurship, Business or STEM at an accredited Canadian post-secondary institution. Applicants must have an active business within the last 6 months and be able to show proof of their business. The selected women will receive the scholarship through their respective post-secondary institution from WEDO Canada. To be eligible, applicants must be Canadian Citizens or Canadian Permanent Residents who have maintained a minimum 3.0 GPA. The program has successfully provided 43 individual scholarships to female students across Canada over the past years. Applications are due by Friday, October 10, and winners will be notified by November 3rd, 2025.
