BC Leslee Jean Arnet Adult Bursary Application Form

This bursary was established by Leslee’s children, Synnove, Kirsten and James to honour the memory of their mother. Leslee was widowed at a young age with three children to raise. She wished that she could afford more education for herself so that she could provide more opportunities and education for a brighter future for her children. The family has established this fund and hopes that Guiding members who remember Leslee’s contributions to Guiding will donate to the fund.

If you require adaptations for completion of the application, please contact bc-scholarships@girlguides.ca.
