It’s back and brighter than ever!

The LiveBright Scholarship Program is now accepting applications from Canadian students age 16 to 25. Sun Life Global Investments is offering five $2,000 awards to help the next generation of Canadians pursue post-secondary education.

This year, we’re reflecting on our commitment to gender diversity and making our industry a more inclusive place. We’re asking applicants to create a one-page flyer on the importance of developing and promoting women within an organization. Why is female empowerment important? We’re looking forward to reviewing the creative submissions from students across Canada.

Scholarships will be awarded based on leadership and participation in school and community activities, an understanding of why gender diversity is important, past academic performance, work experience and other awards or accolades.

Since 2016, we have awarded 25 Canadian students with scholarships to support their post-secondary studies. We strongly believe in supporting and developing the next generation of leaders.

Apply to the LiveBright Scholarship by September 15

We partnered with Cirque du Soleil this year to reach even more young people across the country. Children of Sun Life employees, field management, financial advisors, or Cirque du Soleil employees are not eligible to apply.
