The Robert Argue Environmental Scholarship

Do you have what we’re looking for?

The Robert Argue Scholarship Award was founded in honour of Bob Argue, the chief architect behind the creation of the recycling and waste reduction program that currently serves the Centre & South Hastings area, including Prince Edward County. The primary aim of the scholarship is to encourage environmental activism and innovation, and to make possible the participation in an environmental endeavour for one deserving recipient.

Applications and deadlines for the Robert Argue Scholarship Award are provided to the local Boards of Education each spring.

The committee will accept a one or two page application, detailing background experience, area(s) of interest and a statement of intent to attend a qualifying post-secondary course or to pursue fieldwork with a specific environmentally related organization or project.

The deadline for application was Friday, May 4, 2012.
