AMHEBF Bursaries
The Alberta Masonic Higher Education Bursary Fund (AMHEBF) supports and promotes education for the benefit of humanity.
Our bursaries are awarded to students at the post secondary level of education in Alberta and Northwest Territories with the exception of the Fred and Lilly North Masonic Bursary which accepts applications from specific locations within Alberta and Saskatchewan. Bursaries are awarded on a basis of need and proven scholastic ability. Applications are accepted December 1st. annually and the application deadline is February 1st. annually no later than 12:00pm.
In 2018, we proudly provided 60 bursaries on our 60th anniversary; totaling over $300,000.00. And, since its inception in 1959, over 4000 bursaries exceeding 5 Million dollars have been awarded to valued students.
