Since success is defined other than just by performance, scholarships offered by the Opération Bonne Mine encourage the emergence of social, creative, citizen, and human skills.

With a value of $250 at the elementary school level, and $500 at high school, the scholarships recognize young people with atypical school experiences facing multiple challenges, who stand out because of their work and school success accomplishments.

Awarded at a prestigious gala, we invite parents and teachers to an evening that is rich in emotions and talents.
