In order to be eligible to apply to the Lena Gosselin Memorial Fund, you must be:
  • A resident of the Northwest Territories for at least the last 2 consecutive years
  • Pursuing training in the area of executive office administration and management with a continued interest to work within the Northwest Territories

All of our scholarship application forms and additional materials need to be submitted on our scholarship application portal.

  • You will complete a questionnaire describing your goals, your dedication to your field of study, your involvement in the community, etc.

You must be an eligible resident to apply for a scholarship.
As such, YKCF requires you to make a residency declaration and have a witness sign off.
However, you do not need to print out any forms!
Each residency declaration is a one-click question embedded within the application process.
You just need to provide the email address of your residency witness, and they will be emailed directly.

You can only apply through our online application portal.
