本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛加拿大中国专业人士协会（简称CPAC）教育基金会近日宣布，2014年度CPAC奖学金及助学金评选工作已经结束，十名学子从百名申请者中脱颖而出、将获嘉奖。颁奖典礼将于2015年3月8日中午12时（夏令时）在多伦多北约克市民中心会议厅举行，免费对公众开放并提供简餐，欢迎学生、家长积极参加，分享学子的成功经验。
2014年度CPAC奖（助）学金将要发放的十个奖项是：一名3000元CPAC-TD Meloche Monnex至尊奖学金、三名1000元CPAC-Tianbao、CPAC-Investors Group、CPAC-Queen Financial Group大学奖学金、四名1000元高中奖学金（其中一名由CPA Ontario赞助）以及两名1000元助学金。有别于其他的奖学金评选只基于考核申请者的学习成绩情况，CPAC奖学金的评选还看重申请者对人类、社会和环境的关怀以及领导力的体现。
与往年的颁奖典礼一样，除常规的颁奖环节外，CPAC特意安排了获奖者分享成功经验，从学习习惯、学习方法、家庭教育、社会活动等各方面与同龄人及家长分享心得体会，希望能给更多莘莘学子和家长以鼓励和启示。颁奖典礼结束后还安排了招待会，给家长和学生提供更多交流的机会。
“CPAC了解良好的教育对我们的下一代非常重要，我们希望能借此奖学金、助学金鼓励那些移民的子女，那些勤奋上进、热衷社区服务的学生在教育的道路上不断前进”，CPAC教育基金会会长林瑞铭先生说。“CPAC衷心感谢各位捐赠者和赞助商的慷慨支持，特别是本届奖学金颁奖典礼的钻石赞助商CPA Ontario”。

The Foundation also provides bursaries to students who hold above-average grades and demonstrate financial need.
“We received applications from about one hundred brilliant students this year, from across the country.

We would like to thank all of our sponsors and donors for their generous and continued support that has allowed us to fulfill our commitment in this regard. We would especially like to thank CPA Ontario, the diamond sponsor of the 2014 CPAC Scholarship Award Ceremony,” continued President Lim.
Tianbao Travel, Investors Group, CPA Ontario, and Queen Financial Group are all sponsors of $1,000 scholarships and awards to high school and post-secondary students. The highest honour is the $3,000 CPAC-TD Meloche Monnex Prestigious Scholarship, award to the top applicant in the post-secondary student category. Awards to high school students and bursaries are mostly funded by CPAC, and will also be in the amount of $1,000 each. Total value of scholarships, awards, and bursaries this year is $12,000.
