Belcourt Brosseau Metis Awards (BBMAs) support Metis Albertans with scholarships up to $10,000 each year for post-secondary education.
The BBMAs were established in 2001 by the directors of the Canative Housing Corporation, Orval Belcourt, Dr. Herb Belcourt, and Georges Brosseau QC. Their vision was to help Metis Albertans realize self-sufficiency through pose-secondary education and skill development.
Over the past twenty years, the Belcourt Brosseau Metis Awards have provided more than $10.5 million to approximately 2,600 Metis students studying at institutions across Alberta. These awards are one of the largest non-governmental sources of student funding for Metis students in Canada.
