OUR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

DCCBA scholarship program is established to respond to the educational needs of our black students. The purpose of the program is to recognize and celebrate excellence in our youth and support access to post-secondary education.

No donation is too small to make a difference. If you would like to help make the dreams of a black youth in our community realized please consider making a donation.

Scholarship Sponsorship opportunities are also available. If you would like to sponsor a scholarship please contact us at info@dufferincountycba.org or 6472101939

The Dufferin County Canadian Black Association was founded on June 3, 2020 by Shelburne resident Alethia O’Hara Stephenson. The impetus for the creation of the Association followed after many discussions with community members, political leaders and stakeholders about the growing Black population in Dufferin County (Blacks including those of African decedent and individuals from the Caribbean and Latin diaspora) and the need to provide a voice, advocacy, a safe space along with educational programs, support services, community outreach and scholarship opportunities benefiting families and businesses within Dufferin County.
