One of the Hamilton Community Foundation’s largest funds, the Chaney-Ensign Bursary Fund provides educational bursaries to students who demonstrate serious financial need and who have completed their high school requirements in publicly-funded secondary schools located in the City of Hamilton.

The intent of this bursary fund is to support students, graduating from secondary schools in the City of Hamilton most likely to benefit from higher education either in the United States or Canada, but who otherwise would be unable to financially afford the same.

The bursary can be used to assist with tuition, housing and other expenses related to your post-secondary education. You can apply to this fund to support your first year as well as subsequent years of studies at a college, university or institute.
