APPLICATION FORM - JOHN DAWSON MUSIC BURSARY FUND
To benefit from the John Dawson Music Fund, children must reside and attend school in Durham Region. The application process is collaborative, requiring the involvement of the child, their parent(s), and school teacher. Together, they fill out the application to highlight the child's interest and commitment to music. By encouraging this joint effort, the fund not only supports individual musical development but also fosters a supportive community around the young musician, helping to build a robust foundation for their future endeavors in music.
The bursary is for the purpose of providing funding for either a musical instrument (to a maximum of $1,000 tax included) or for 1 year (26 sessions) instrument or vocal lessons for students who demonstrate musical interest. Financial need will be a consideration. The bursary is awarded annually to applicants for a one-year period. Previous years’ recipients must re-apply annually for consideration of renewal.
