NORTHWEST CERAMICS FOUNDATION

FUTURE SCHOLARSHIP

NW CF has donated $1 1 ,000te Emily Carr
Institute of Art and Design [or the estab-
lishment of endowment scholarships. The
scholarships, administrated by ECLAD,
will be awarded to ceramics students en-
tering their turd or fourth year of study.
We anticipate the first award in about five
years.

The huge advantage to this donation 1s that
it is matched by government funds dou-
bling the endowment to $22,000. The
money will be invested for a five year
pened after which the interest will be
available for scholarships. Of the total
interest, 10% must be returned to the en-
dowment and the remaining 90% disbursed
as ward money.

Careful consideration was taken by the
Board regarding this decision, especially
since the scholarship will be available
only to ECIAD students, However it was
felt that because the donation is matched
as well as any subsequent donations, this
offered excellent opportunities to estab-
lish an endowment. Also, a great number
of ceramics students do attend ECIAD and
this allows us to assist them.
