The Central Canada Exhibition, established in 1885, at Ottawa’s Lansdowne Park provided many generations of 4-H members an opportunity to display projects, interact with other 4-H members and to “learn to do by doing”.
The Exhibition Association on dissolution in 2021 wanted to provide a legacy for rural youth and 4-H members in Eastern Ontario by providing bursaries/grants to further their careers.
Eligibility Requirements:
- An active 4-H member for at least five consecutive years
- Applicant is pursuing further career development at a post secondary institution or apprenticeship program
