News

Red River College Polytechnic has received a $1.5M gift from the Joyce Family Foundation to support students who face barriers to their education. The gift will create annual bursaries of $5K each for youth in care and vulnerable students. Successful applicants will also be assigned an academic coach to support them throughout their studies. “The Joyce Family Foundation Bursary creates the largest fund for student aid at the College and more than doubles RRC Polytech’s ability to support financially vulnerable students pursuing post-secondary educations,” said RRC Polytech President Fred Meier.
