We are pleased to announce that the Scholarship will again be awarded to a Saskatchewan student currently attending Grade 12 (or who graduated from a Saskatchewan high school in the past 24 months).
The Scholarship amount is $1,000, but perhaps more important than the financial benefit is the encouragement the award gives to students with outstanding literary talent. To quote our 2019 recipient, Henry Ang Ri Lee from Prince Albert, “I have never believed in my writing skills enough to be an active member of the writing community. However, I think this award has given me the courage to put myself out there and share my creativity with others in the future."
Please note that there are no entry fees, and this scholarship is endorsed by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education. For more information, please visit www.orourkepoetryscholarship.ca
