Every day, in communities across Canada, young people are actively demonstrating their passion for the
environment through the important work they accomplish. These dedicated young Canadians are emerging as
tomorrow's environmental leaders and advocates.
Toyota Canada and the Toyota Canada Foundation in partnership with Earth Day Canada established the Toyota
Earth Day Scholarship Program to help cultivate and nurture this environmental leadership. The Toyota Earth
Day Scholarship Program encourages and rewards graduating Canadian high school students who have
distinguished themselves through environmental community service, extracurricular and volunteer activities, and
academic excellence.
The Toyota Earth Day Scholarship is offered to students entering their first year of post-secondary studies in the
discipline of their choice, to prepare themselves for the career of their choice.
The Toyota Earth Day Scholarship Program grants 20 awards of $5 000 each annually, to be applied directly
towards tuition, books, room and board (where applicable) or other educational expenses for the first year of
post-secondary full-time studies in Canada.
A national winner - selected from the 20 regional winners - will also be awarded the Toyota Earth Day
Scholarship National Award and a Panasonic notebook computer at the National Award Ceremony.
