We know that every young person has the potential to shape their future and contribute meaningfully to their community. The Shaw Visionary Scholars Program is here to:
Expand opportunities for students by providing meaningful support beyond financial aid.
Offer long-term guidance through mentorship, leadership development, and academic support.
Ensure that students have the resources to pursue their aspirations and contribute to their communities with confidence.
With a focus on academic growth, leadership, and community engagement, SVS ensures that scholars are not only prepared for post-secondary education but also supported in achieving their long-term goals.
The Shaw Visionary Scholars Program is co-developed by the LesLois Shaw Foundation (LLSF) & Visions of Science.
The LesLois Shaw Foundation (LLSF) is a Toronto-based foundation that champions communities to drive lasting change in education, global health, essential goods and housing security to support women & children in achieving their full potential.
Visions of Science is a charitable organization that ensures equitable access to STEM education, empowering youth from underrepresented communities to overcome systemic barriers to transform society and the planet.
Together, we are expanding opportunities and providing meaningful support to students as they pursue their goals.
