Alex and Gillian Davidson Family Endowment for Indigenous Students in Canada
The CIM Foundation’s (CIMF) Alex & Gillian Davidson Family Endowment was established to support students pursuing a three-year technical program or a four- year university degree program in the Mineral Extraction and Processing Industries.
The funds were created to enhance the students’ lives during their studies, and to support them during their critical years away from home.
The Alex & Gillian Davidson Family Endowment for Indigenous students in Canada will provide two multi-year grants in the springtime. Students in their second year, enrolled in a technical program, will receive $4,000 a year for a total of $8,000, while students enrolled in a degree program will receive $5,000 a year for a total of $15,000. Grants are available to Indigenous Peoples including First Nations, Metis and Inuit students who are permanent residents of Canada.
