(Ottawa, June 22, 2017)

The NEADS National Student Awards Program is the only cross-disability awards program in Canada that is open to students with disabilities at all levels of post-secondary education, regardless of field of study. The NEADS National Student Awards ($3,000 tuition awards), the Holly Bartlett Memorial Award ($1,000), and the NEADS Christine Nieder Award ($1,000) recognize outstanding Canadian college and university students with disabilities for their academic and community achievements, and their potential to succeed in their chosen career. Over the past 10 years, the programs have awarded 80, $3,000 awards and 10, $1,000 tuition scholarships to deserving students with disabilities. Please help us support full access to higher education for persons with disabilities by donating to these awards online now: https://www.canadahelps.org/services/wa/dnm/en/#/page/344
