The Leaders of Tomorrow Scholarship was designed to assist students affiliated with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Toronto with financial support for their post-secondary education. Funded by the JAM Charitable Foundation, this award is available to two students and is valued at $5,000 each.
This scholarship is not solely academic based. We want to hear how you plan to be a leader in your community today and in the years to come. Recipients may include students who are a positive presence in the lives of those around them, are involved in school, clubs or team athletics, contribute to their community in meaningful ways, and/or have ideas on how to improve their school, neighbourhood, community or the world – now and in the future.

The purpose of the Andra Takacs Scholarship is to encourage students to continue with their schooling after high school, by giving them academic and financial support. While the financial award will go to one male and one female student per year, the University of Toronto is committed to matching all applicants with university student mentors throughout their high school years. Candidates must demonstrate financial need.
The award consists of a (one time) $250 dollar prize and post-secondary tuition assistance of $36,000 ($9,000 per year for four years), conditional upon satisfactory academic progress. The $250 prize is given to the award recipients at their Grade 8 graduation ceremony in June (subject to approval of the school principal).
Post-secondary tuition assistance is provided at the time of enrolment and will be applied directly toward tuition fees and other academic expenses. The scholarship may be used at the University of Toronto or any accredited post-secondary school within Ontario that is approved by the University of Toronto. It is up to you to finish high school and gain admission to an accredited post-secondary institution within Ontario.
