Celebrating 2026 Scholarship Recipients

The Waterloo Community Foundation is proud to award $84,000 in scholarships to graduating students this year, recognizing academic achievement, community involvement, and leadership across Waterloo.

These scholarships are made possible through the generosity of local donors who have established Scholarship Funds with a range of eligibility criteria. Donors also have the opportunity to participate in the selection process alongside a volunteer committee appointed by the Foundation.

“We are honored to work alongside donors who are passionate about investing in the futures of local students,” shared Erin Tink, Executive Director of the Waterloo Community Foundation. “These scholarships represent not only financial support, but a strong belief in the potential of our community’s next generation of leaders.”
