FCC Indigenous Student Empowerment Fund

Open to Indigenous students attending one of four Saskatchewan post-secondary institutions, the FCC Indigenous Student Empowerment Fund can provide you with up to $1,000 for basic needs (rent, groceries, utilities, damage deposit or laptop) any time during the semester.

Who’s eligible?
