Currently, over $500,000 has accumulated in the Fund as a result of donations, student pledges of support and accrued interest. Each year a portion of interest earnings are distributed to student bursaries and the Endowment Fund competition. This year, approximately $23,000 can be distributed to award recipients. One half of the allocation will go to student bursaries and the balance to the Fund competition. The SMR Endowment Fund Advisory Committee extends an invitation to apply for these funds.
The deadline for application is Monday, February 4, 2013.
