CWL Scholarship 2025

The Catholic Women’s League of Canada is a national organization with over 70,000 members that calls its members to grow in faith, and to witness to the love of God through ministry and service. The core values of the organization are FAITH, SERVICE, and SOCIAL JUSTICE. But first and foremost, the CWL is a sisterhood of women who want to pray, sing , worship God together, to laugh and support each other in our faith, and ultimately to effect change in our community and our country. Though the national organization was founded in 1920, the St. John Vianney CWL Parish League has been in existence for over 60 years and boasts members from age 17 to 97. We support our parish and our community, as well as organizations throughout the province, our country and the world at large. As part of our effort to support our youth and education, we offer two bursaries to Grade 12 graduates going on to post-secondary education, who are active members of Holy Trinity Parish and who attend and participate regularly in their parish. Applications for the 2025 bursary program will be available on April 15 and must be submitted no later than June 1 to be considered. See further details below.
