Welcome

 

The scholarship is in memory of Ed Werbowski, a Charter Member of the Rotary Club of Winnipeg, Charleswood, much admired for his unflagging energy and commitment to the ideals of Rotary, namely, 'service above self'. The bursary is available to a grade 12 student at high schools in Charleswood and applied to post-secondary education costs within 2 years following graduation. It is intended to assist in achieving academic goals and can be applied toward any education related costs, including textbooks or lab fees. The Rotary Club pays $1000 to the education institute which is applied to the recipient's student account. 

 

 

Oak Park, St. Paul’s and Shaftesbury High Schools are responsible for selecting a grade 12 student to receive the Ed Werbowski Memorial Scholarship. This is generally done during the latter part of the school year in advance of the school’s annual Awards Event. They consider the student biography, a record of volunteering, extracurricular participation, and a description of future plans. Scholarship recipients are invited to attend a meeting of the Charleswood Rotary Club, held weekly at the Breezy Bend Golf Club.
