Envirothon Scholarship

April 17, 2017

The 2016 Envirothon Scholarship goes to…Sara and Colin! This scholarship goes towards their post-secondary studies in the environmental field- which they have already started!

LCN committee member, Catherine, and Stewardship Manager, Olivia, awarded the cheques on Sept 28th, 2015.

The Canon Envirothon is North America’s largest high school environmental education competition. This unique program reaches more than 500,000 students across North America annually. Since 2008, the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority in partnership with local environmental organizations has offered this program to high-school students throughout Niagara!

Since 2011 Land Care Niagara has offered a scholarship to a grade twelve student who resides in the Region of Niagara and is an active member of their school’s Niagara Envirothon team. We currently offer two $500 scholarship awards. The individuals must be continuing their post-secondary education in a college or university environmental program.

Land Care Niagara operates within the boundaries of what is now known as the Niagara Region, and we take this moment to recognize the significance of these lands and the Indigenous Peoples that have lived here since time immemorial. The Niagara Region is situated on treaty and traditional land, carrying the rich culture of the Hatiwendaronk, the Haudenosaunee, and the Anishinaabe, encompassing First Nations such as the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Six Nations of the Grand River. We also pay respect to the diverse First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples from across Turtle Island who live and work in Niagara today. In our commitment to creating a healthy and sustainable environment, we stand in solidarity with all Indigenous peoples, both past, present and future who are advocating for the wise stewardship of the lands we inhabit. We recognize the cultural and historical harm inflicted by colonization on Indigenous peoples, resulting in generational trauma, stolen land and systemic injustices. In light of this continuous history and understanding our role as Treaty People on Turtle Island, may we dedicate ourselves to moving forward in the spirit of partnership, collaboration, and reconciliation together.
