Scholarship Program

The Municipal Education and Research Foundation (MERF) Scholarship Program has been developed to encourage and support the studies of post-secondary students with an interest in municipal government. The Scholarship is available to assist first-year students who have shown an interest in pursuing one of the many career opportunities in local government and have demonstrated a history of commitment to community involvement, community improvement, public service and volunteerism. Our goal is to assist in training the next generation of Ontario's local government professionals.

Submit your application by June 29th.
