2025 Trevor Harrison Civic Engagement Scholarship

To honour Trevor’s legacy, his family has created this Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada student scholarship in his name. The scholarship aims to provide financial support to politically engaged students, who have also been impacted by a brain tumour and who want to make positive contributions to public policy and/or politics through civic engagement, in their pursuit of post-secondary education.

Throughout his life and the health challenges he faced, Trevor carried himself with dignity, grace, thoughtfulness, and professionalism. Trevor was always thinking of others; this scholarship seeks to embody his spirit and vision for a better Canada. It awards $2,000 to the successful candidate.
