The Moms and Mentors Society is committed to supporting single mothers on their educational journey. Our scholarship program provides financial assistance for tuition, textbooks, and related expenses, as well as mentoring services. We prioritize women who have not completed Grade 12 or need to upgrade their skills to enter post-secondary education. Applications are open to residents of the West Shore of Vancouver Island, including Sooke, Colwood, Langford, Metchosin, and View Royal. Take this opportunity to advance your career and achieve your educational goals with our support.

 Write a brief letter of introduction addressed to the Moms and Mentors Society Scholarship Committee and include your name, home address, email and the best contact number to call, i.e., cell or home. Provide a brief introduction about you and your family. 

 Next in your letter, identify your goals and include proof of registration into the program of your choice. Identify the name and address of the institution you are accepted into, the date of admission and anticipated date of completion. 

 Please attach your letter of introduction with two reference letters from people who are in support of your application for a scholarship. They can be personal or professional contacts. Please include their phone number, email address, and inform them that a member of the Scholarship Committee may contact them.

 Email your documents, including letter of introduction, along with proof of registration into your program of choice, and two reference letters to the Chair of Moms and Mentors Scholarship Committee at momsandmentors@outlook.com

 The Scholarship Committee will contact applicants within 2 - 3 weeks to confirm receipt of their application. Scholarship applications are reviewed on an individual basis.
