Nunavut Tunngavik Inc announces PSE scholarship program coming to end

Nunavut Tunngavik Inc has announced that it will no longer offer its Post-Secondary Scholarship program, which provided students with a maximum of $2,500 per school year. The scholarship program relied on $8.6M in funds that were awarded to Nunavut Tunngavik Inc in the 2016 Residential Schools Settlement Agreement. The funds will reportedly be exhausted by the middle of this year. “Over the past decade, the Foundation has used these funds to provide scholarships and programming that have benefited Inuit across Nunavut,” explained Nunavut Tunngavik Inc Director of Communications Annie Thomlinson. The organization will continue to offer other scholarship and funding programs.
